Sault, the elusive R&B-and-funk collective led by producer Inflo, have returned with Chapter 1, their thirteenth album. The LP options contributions from R&B singer Cleo Sol, singer-songwriter Jack Peñate, and legendary hitmakers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
Since Sault’s acclaimed 2019 album 5, the group has surprise-released greater than a dozen initiatives below Inflo’s Ceaselessly Dwelling Originals imprint. In 2025, the producer was sued by frequent collaborator Little Simz over Inflo’s alleged failure to repay a $2.2 million mortgage to cowl the prices of Sault’s first-ever stay efficiency, in December 2023.
In an announcement accompanying Chapter 1, the group famous that the album “strikes with endurance and perception. Rhythm, breath, and silence sit facet by facet, creating an area that’s reflective but charged. There’s heat and expectation. A way that one thing is gathering.”
