A Day in the Life: A Pokadelick Adventure is the second album by the American musician Kwamé, released on May 22, 1990.[1][2] He is credited with his group, a New Beginning. The first single was "Ownlee Eue".[3] The album peaked at No. 113 on the Billboard 200.[4] Kwamé supported it with a North American tour.[5]
Kwamé intended A Day in the Life: A Pokadelick Adventure to be hip-hop's first concept album; he described his world as the "Bone Age".[5][6] It covers two days in Kwamé's life, with each track beginning with a snippet of one of his answering machine messages.[5][7] Kwamé made little use of sampling, preferring to play many of the instruments on the tracks.[5] The album title refers to Kwamé's penchant for wearing polka dots.[8]
