Truly Free / Time brings together the soulful innovation of Hijrah, blending lush jazz influences with the infectious grooves of soul and funk. Crafted by an ensemble featuring producer Rudi Mwongozi and guitarist Wali Ali, this album stands out with its unique mix of drum machines, vibrant keyboards, and understated yet evocative vocals that capture the spirit of early '80s experimentation.
