Issue nº 33 of The Gentlewoman is fronted by Solange Knowles.⁠

A megawatt modern pop star with a free lending library and her own college course, Solange takes us on a tour of the thrilling manifestations of her radical imagination in a 16-page profile by Seb Emina with photography by Inez & Vinoodh and styling by Xenia May Settel.⁠

Solange released her debut record at 16. At 27 she founded Saint Heron, her expectation-busting creative platform, before quietly unleashing the immortal albums A Seat at the Table and When I Get Home. Now, on the eve of her 40th birthday, she’s entering what she calls “a space of rebirth.”⁠

Whether she’s reappraising astrology systems, championing Black modernist architecture, or commissioning hand-blown glass art, Solange is single-minded in her quest. “I’m constantly fighting for my truth, and the truth of my ancestors.”⁠

And the best music, she says, is still to come.⁠
