This experience was SO. MUCH. FUN. God really used these beautiful vessels to speak to me and speak life into my art in ways I didn’t even know I needed. I am so inspired by the youth. That’s why I ALWAYS meet them where THEY. ARE. When I was asked to speak at this school on behalf of The Sankofa Festival, Saturday at 7PM… (SEE YOU THERE) They asked me to talk about my journey with music and talk to the children about Day By Day. I played the song for them after our discussion about what production is, how to arrange, why I write and y’all… them babies were ENGAGED. The answers I was getting were SO PROFOUND. They told me this was their new all time favorite song and they wanted to recreate it sooooo WE DID🥹🤍 I had them split up based on HOW THEY FELT and maneuvered the arrangement based off how they were responding to keep it as raw and tuned into their frequency as possible 🎶✨ pure MAGIC ✨🎶 I will definitely be back as I release more music haha. It was genuinely a full circle moment because School Of Rock was my FAVORITE movie so I literally got to live a desire of my heart. God is SO AMAZING.

you can’t be a disciple and not be disciplined…
freedom looks like bondage initially & bondage can feel like freedom.
you will be known by your fruit.
not your performance.
keep going.
count all the trials, joy.
the testing of your faith is necessary to produce what’s needed.

you prepared me to endure with love.
you watched me get saved in the church that built the foundation of faith you needed to lead ME of all people to Jesus (cause nanna you KNEWWWW i was so rebellious and prideful lol)
you’ve watched me travel the world, accept rewards, live your dreams, sing your songs, laugh, explore, return home to Africa…. you’ve prayed me through my silent dark battles. you’ve wiped my tears, and i’m so blessed to have been able to wipe yours.
my bestfriend.
my angel.
my heart.
thank you for leading me to the truth through Jesus.
thank you for reminding me who i am.
thank you for trusting me in your last days to stand beside you.
thank you for fulfilling the prophecy.
thank you for this handwritten prayer that you knew i’d need for this exact moment t.
cheers to the promised land my lady,
you fought until the end.
both of my grandmothers are now angels, EXACTLY 6 months apart to the date.
i recorded this voice memo as you were fighting today…. i said this prayer to let you know, it’s okay to go. i’m okay. i see no fault in His Will. He is just.
i recorded this song, in the slave river, home in West Africa, where they made our ancestors take their last bath, before embarking on the journey that led us to this moment….
this is power.
now it’s my turn.
