Grace Jones – Slave to the Rhythm | The Album That Rewrote Itself

What happens when a pop album stops behaving like a collection of songs and starts operating like a system?

In this episode, we explore Slave to the Rhythm, the 1985 collaboration between Grace Jones and Trevor Horn that blurs the line between pop, performance art, and studio experiment. Built from fragments, repetitions, and reconfigurations of a single track, the album feels less like a record and more like a hall of mirrors, where identity, authorship, and control begin to dissolve.

I do hope that you enjoy this episode.
