Exposure is Esperanza Spalding's sixth studio album, released on December 15, 2017. It was created in a unique experiment: Spalding composed, recorded, and produced the album in just 77 hours, streaming the process live on Facebook.
The project arose as a response to a challenge from her fans. Spalding worked with a small team and no safety net, documenting every step. The album includes collaborations with musicians like Matthew Stevens and Justin Brown.
Exposure received praise for its spontaneity and creativity. The cover was designed by Spalding and the album was released in digital and physical formats, with a limited edition that included an art book.
