Riz Ahmed has announced his debut solo LP The Long Goodbye. Produced by his former Swet Shop Boys collaborator Redinho, the album is due out March 6 via his own label Mongrel.

“It’s a breakup record about being dumped by the country you call home,” Ahmed said in a press release. “In this climate of ‘immigrants out!’ it’s about that feeling of being kicked out of a house that you built.” A short film of the same name directed by Aneil Karia serves as a companion piece to the LP. Ahmed released the single “Mogambo” in 2018.
