copeland – aka longtime FACT darling Inga Copeland – has announced details of her debut album.

Copeland is, of course, best known for her tenure as half of oblique experimental duo Hype Williams. Working alongside Dean Blunt, her time with the (ostensibly defunct) group saw her turn out numerous hypnagogic pop set-texts (Untitled, Black Is Beautiful) and cheeky bootleg records (Do Roids And Kill E’Rything) – and that’s without mentioning their mondo weirdo live shows.

As a solo agent, Copeland’s released on Rush Hour’s ace No ‘Label’ sister imprint, put out the Don’t Look Back, That’s Not Where You’re Going 12″, impressed with the beguiling Higher Powers mixtape and, in collaboration with John T. Gast, landed one of our favourite releases of 2013

The singer and producer has now announced details of her debut solo album, titled – wait for it – Because I’m Worth It. The record will run to eight tracks; one, ‘Advice To Young Girls’, is a co-production with Actress.

The press release contains the following koanlike stanza:

“spill a tear and then you cry for ldn

is it the kinda place you’d die for?

how does it feel to be lied to?

but then again what’s a girl to do?”

Because I’m Worth It is due in May.
