In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My first time performing live on stage, I was about 4 years old. I learned spirituals, gospel and Native Indigenous music from my grandmother and straight ahead jazz, ancient chant and Afro-Caribbean music from my mother. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Aretha Franklin, Amazing Grace (Live at New Temple Missionary Baptist Church, Los Angeles, CA, 01/13/72) Lauryn Hill, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill OutKast, Aquemini Outkast changed my life, my mind, and my pen. The freedom in their sound gave me permission to be whole myself. Lauryn Hill empowered me as a young conscious inner city Black muslim girl. I saw myself reflected in her wisdom. Aretha saved my soul. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “North Star (feat. D Smoke)” This song has personal and historical significance to my family and culture. Plus I love rapping in different time signatures and Dj dummy killed this beat. The music video we created with D Smoke was so powerful. I love everything about it.
