Los Angeles-based Mexican/Colombian artist, producer, singer, rapper, and multi-instrumentalist St. Panther, aka Dani Bojorges-Giraldo (they/them), has announced their long awaited EP, Strange World, a collection of modern Pop songs layered with elements of R&B, Jazz, Hip-Hop and Alt-Pop. The songs address “the wider climate of uncertainty and oblivion.”
Due out November 7th, 2025, Strange World marks St. Panther’s first release with the label drink sum wtr and their first compilation of music since their 2020 debut EP, These Days.
Regarding the EP, St. Panther remarks:
It’s been highly impactful–to say the absolute least–to witness the world in the state it’s in today. In so many lyrics and melodies, I’m using this set of songs as a method of putting certain messages into our ether, intentionally shouting certain things from the rooftops that a friend jokingly said ‘for world peace;’ but this music is meant to activate people in some way to meditate about our relationship to each other, which feels like a good use for music right now.
Following the departure from the major label network, St. Panther took the time to be among their peers. This project brings in many of previous collaborators, including long-time collaborator McClenney (H.E.R., Khalid, Jamila Woods) sitting in the co-Producer chair and Erik Bodin of Little Dragon’s acoustic drumming featured in the title track.
Alongside the announcement St. Panther released the EP title track, “Strange World,” featuring Grammy-winning singer/songwriter/rapper, Rae Khalil (Anderson Paak) and co-written with Erik Bodin of Little Dragon.
On the track, St. Panther says:
Since the last time I put out a project, our world has only gotten stranger, which has only made my work more intentional. In this gap, I set out to write music about our world in the state it’s in now and imagine a future beyond it with some of my favorite people to talk about the world with. In ‘Strange World’ you can hear us all in the studio together, laughing in between takes so often it bled into the actual recording, which we decided to keep because the spirit of that felt important. I truly believe that hope and joy can alter the state of anything, especially when the world feels most divided/needs healing. It’s all in the lyrics, I’m still rooting for us.
