On May 13, Johan will drop his debut album WDYWTBWYGU (short for “What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up”), an opulently arranged set held together by Johan’s auto-tune croon and his tender and self-deprecating perspective on fading future horizons. Lyrical Lemonade says that the album is “a healthy dose of refreshing artistic originality from a powerhouse known for his collaborations and chamber arrangements.” i-D just named it one of their Best Albums of 2022 So Far, calling it “a classic coming-of-age tale enlivened by elegant instrumentation and moody vocal harmonies” and “a worthy addition to the canon of albums to play after slamming your bedroom door because nobody truly gets you.”
