On his new album,<em><strong> Yesterday&#8217;s Gone<\/strong><\/em>, <strong>Carner<\/strong> instead regularly lifts up his family, imagines having a little sister (<em><strong>Florence<\/strong><\/em>), laments the load of responsibility and bread-winning (<em><strong>Ain&#8217;t Nothing Changed<\/strong><\/em>), pays tribute to musical fore-bearers (<em><strong>No CD<\/strong><\/em>), and grapples with faith and father figures (<em><strong>The Isle of Arran<\/strong><\/em>). Throughout <em><strong>Carner<\/strong><\/em> caps his craft with stupendous wordplay and musical aplomb.<\/p>\n<p>Check out a few of <strong>Loyle Carner&#8217;s<\/strong> songs below via their official videos. While our favorite track is the jazz-smoke of <em><strong>Ain&#8217;t Nothing Changed<\/strong><\/em>, in honor of <strong>International Women&#8217;s Day<\/strong>, we&#8217;ll lead with <em><strong>Florence<\/strong><\/em> (his imagined little sister).<\/p>\n<p>In other good news, <strong>Carner<\/strong> is set to tour the Continent, Australia, and (for the first time) the U.S., and will make his California debut in mid-May in LA and San Francisco.
