Fitz & The Tantrums co-founder Noelle Scaggs has spent nearly two decades playing across the globe and is now stepping forward into solo work. She has just released debut solo album, Money Fame Love, out via Adventures With Scaggs LLC / Scaggs Entertainment Inc. The official visualizer for “Head To The Sky” is also out now.

Money Fame Love is a record Scaggs has been assembling for years, written across continents, born in nightclubs and quiet rooms in Los Angeles, London, Bucharest, and Saint-Brieuc, France. The album is described as a reflection of working as “Just a woman, her collaborators, and the music that made her.”

Noelle Scaggs shares:

This album is about giving myself a chance to shine in my own light. I created an album with my friends, doing what I love to do most in this world — traveling and making art.

The album moves through genres the way Scaggs herself has moved through cities and blends them into a united collection.

Scaggs produced two tracks entirely on her own, the opening spoken-word manifesto “Get Loose” and “Diamonds On The Floor”. The remaining seven tracks were built alongside an international team, anchored by principal Producer Serban Cazan (co-Producer of Jennie’s “Mantra,” Rita Ora’s “You & I,” Fitz & The Tantrums’ “Young Days”), with mixing by Rafael Fadul (Dua Lipa, Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber’s “Stuck With You”). 

Money Fame Love “asks the questions that don’t have clean answers — about wealth, desire, power, and what we leave behind.”
