“(No One Knows Me) Like the Piano,” the record’s centerpiece, is Sampha at his most direct, and raw. The song was conceived in Sampha’s childhood home, and has absorbed the grief of its setting: in a room upstairs above the piano, his mother, a woman who urged Sampha to pursue a career in music, spent her final days battling cancer. “(No One Knows Me)” is spartan in its design, but not emotion. Sampha explores the contours of his sorrow without straying into the saccharine, knotted up with sadness, but moored in gratitude.
“You would show me I had something some people call a soul,” Sampha sings, as his fingers hit the keys with that very divinity. It gives true life to his personification of the piano, past weaker charges of nostalgic or simple emotional attachment. #Download full song dej loaf no fear mp3glu full.
