Redemption is the fourth studio album by American singer Dawn Richard, which was released on November 18, 2016, by Our Dawn Entertainment. Richard describes the album as a "self-realization" album that is for all people. She says, "The Red Era is for everybody. Every gay, every fluid, every black, every white. Because my fan base has been through a lot of shit." "I wanted to create a vibrant atmosphere. The Red Era is about moving on, redeeming yourself, and finding redemption." Redemption serves as the final chapter in a trilogy that includes 2013's Goldenheart and 2015's Blackheart. The album features contributions from Noisecastle III as well as New Orleans natives Trombone Shorty and PJ Morton.
