Lu’s Much Awaited EP “Gold Linen” Is Released

Lu’, a rising Afrobeats star and linebacker for the Arizona Cardinals, just released his much awaited EP, Gold Linen, an immersive compilation that transcends music. It is literally a canvas of stories, feelings, and experiences brought to life by sound. Congolese-American emoter Lu’, who juggles his athletic career and his love of music, offers audiences a window into his complex journey and contributes a unique viewpoint to his talent.

Gold Linen is the start of a new phase in Lu’s quickly changing musical career. Following his success with the hits “Feva,” “Over,” “Nerves,” and the catchy “Suga,” Lu’ now lets fans into his universe, where music is transformed into an art form and used to tell his life story. Lu’ is adding a new level of craftsmanship to his music with six brand-new songs.

According to Lu, “Gold Linen is an experience, not just a project.” “Music is something you feel, not just something you hear, in my opinion. Every lyric and melody has been thoughtfully selected to produce something original and classic. I consider myself as a painter of my own canvas, with sounds for the colors and vibes that evoke movement, thought, and connection for the textures.

The topic of the EP is the strength of individual empowerment and self-expression. In addition, he finds beauty in vulnerability, simplicity, and accepting the intricacy of one’s story. Every song presents a different angle, examining the harmony between joyful, uplifting emotions and more reflective passages.

Lu goes on, “Gold Linen is about painting your own canvas and owning your story.” It’s about courage, vulnerability, and discovering our beauty in the little things in life. This project is intentionally layered, purposefully created, and meant to make you feel wonderful while you lose yourself in the mood.

Afrobeats, R&B, and international influences are all blended together in Gold Linen, with each song showcasing LU’s broad heritage. Born and raised in Ottawa, with Congolese ancestry, and currently residing in Phoenix, LU’ skillfully combines French, English, and African rhythms to create a sound that is both universal and intensely personal.

In addition to being a rising celebrity in the music industry, Lu’ maintains his success as an Arizona Cardinals linebacker while juggling his musical and athletic pursuits. He entered the music industry in February 2024 with his debut single, “Feva,” and he has been unstoppable ever since. His contagious enthusiasm, unique voice, and riveting performances have swept the business.

“I’m giving my fans more than just music with Gold Linen,” LU claims. “I want them to experience the journey as though they are entering my gallery, where every track is a painting.”

It is anticipated that the EP will appeal to those seeking music that is both global and intimate. Something that inspires them to dance, think, and engage more deeply. Lu’ is poised to solidify his status as one of the most captivating performers to watch in 2025 and beyond with the release of Gold Linen.
