“Box Of Stars Pt. 1” is the fourteenth track from Djesse Vol. 4, the final installment of Jacob Collier’s quadruple-album project, Djesse. It is a song that has been teased numerous times, meant to rival With The Love In My Heart in terms of epicness, as claimed by Collier himself. This song (both parts combined) is the longest Jacob has ever written, topping songs like Once You on Vol. 1 and À Noite / Lua on Vol. 2 at eleven minutes long.

As the culmination of all the sounds from every volume of Djesse, this song brings in a large magnitude of cultures, sounds, people, and the like. Rappers like CHIKA, D Smoke and Sho Madjozi, the French pop duo Yelle, Xhosa-speaking artist Kanyi Mavi and tens of thousands of voices all over the world come together to conclude the four-album, fifty-three-song journey that is Djesse.

Box Of Stars Pt. 1 is also the first part of a greater song named “Box Of Stars”; the second part can be found here.
