197 - SANGO — RHYTHM & MELODY
JULY 11, 2026 · SILICON VALLEY, CA
Sango gives two connected ideas their own space on RHYTHM & MELODY, released July 10, 2026 through Mass Appeal under license from Sango Recordings. The 20-track album is organized across two discs, with rhythm and melody serving as the framework.
A WORLD INSIDE THE COVER
The original artwork is a painted collage of street signs, cars, water, mountains and people. Seattle landmarks sit alongside Michigan and Louisiana references, creating an image that asks the viewer to keep looking. Its many locations and details make the cover feel like a map assembled from personal connections.
For KOLAK, that approach resonates with the way music can connect rooms, cities and memories. The artwork gives a collection of individual references a shared environment.
TWO SIDES OF THE SAME PROJECT
The official tracklist includes “HAPPY TO BE ALIVE” with Vic Mensa, “BIG LITTLE LIES” with Big Sean, “DUET” with Smino and “SOL NO RJ” with Luccas Carlos. Other guests include Babyface Ray, Boldy James, Xavier Omär and PHABO.
The physical edition translates the two-part concept into one black record and one white record, housed in a gatefold sleeve. Mass Appeal also lists a signed test-pressing edition within the collection.
