FUDGE, the highly anticipated fifth studio album by British soul musician Michael Kiwanuka, is scheduled for physical and digital release on October 23, 2026. Self-produced by Kiwanuka for the first time, the album represents a free, instinctive, and playful project recorded concurrently with his previous sessions. The vibrant, psychedelic cover artwork for the album was designed by artist and visual collaborator Stevie Gee.
