Imagine not being picked, but still being chosenš¤
Yesterday was a dream! I had the absolutely pleasure of supporting THEE legendary @mslaurynhill on soprano for @nbcsnl 50th Homecoming concert!! I donāt have the words right now to comprehend it all, but I appreciate @natalieimani for thinking of meš„ŗ & @tanikkacharrae for helping me lock in! So honored to put this show together w/ you & @sisterrandolph !
@dancewithjudith youāre a masterclass girl! Couldnāt have done this without you!
I was stretched in ways that only God could have prepared me for!
God is good. Thatās it.
Ohā¦& the mics were definitely on, bookie! š Donāt play with me!

Thinking about todayās blessings that used to be prayers. Sitting in gratitude, fully present, open, & aligned.
Earlier this year I did a live recording for @kendalldmcdowell & he spoke into the team, but he had no idea what my prayers & desires were. Ironically enough, he had on mint green lol.
What an incredible experience with @tobenwigwe accompanied by @natsymphonydc !! I had the privilege of working with these beautiful souls @hernameis_isa & @samohtmusic to put on a really dope show! I met some amazing people whoāve admired from afar & Iām overwhelmed with joy. God opened another door I wasnāt expecting š„ŗāØ
S/o to @sangjazzy for the referral & @davidmichaelwyatt for the call! š„¹š«¶š½
I also had the best custom ears from the homies over at @bellosaudio !!! Yall are literally the best!

#NCCUAlumni | A moment for the culture and a proud moment for the global Eagle community. š¦ āØ
Vocalist and NCCU alumna Brandee Daniel ā12 (@OhMazingBee ) joined Lauryn Hill on the Grammy Awards stage, lending her background vocals for a soul-stirring tribute honoring Roberta Flack and DāAngelo.
A professional background vocalist for three years and touring with Ms. Hill for the past year, Brandee marked her first-ever Grammy performance with a moment rooted in excellence, discipline, and storytelling.
Reflecting on the experience, Brandee shared, āIām still pinching myself about honoring the legendary Roberta Flack and DāAngeloās music and giving it the tribute it deserves. It was a masterclass in intention, precision, soul, and storytelling meeting on one stage. What the audience saw was brilliance; what they didnāt see was the discipline, long nights, and leadership that made it possible. A seamless, emotionally charged Grammy performance that honored the music while raising the bar.ā
She also shared that she is currently working on her debut EP and is looking forward to its release in late summer 2026.
In addition to her work as a performing and touring artist, Brandee serves as Vice President of the Texas Alumni Chapter of the NCCU Alumni Association, continuing her commitment to the Eagle community.
From NCCU to a global stage, and through her continued service and leadership, this milestone reflects the power of preparation, purpose, and legacy in motion.

OH CANADAšØš¦
This tour with the Queen @mslaurynhill was special for reasons Iāll talk about later. But as it came to a close, the second to last stop in Toronto was my favorite bc my cousin & best friend flew to support me. š„¹ Little did I know, my best friend was going to document these moments.
Watching this footage reminded me that in 2025, I let my resilience speak louder than my doubt, and God honored that āyesā.
My inner child is clapping from the front rowāso proud of how far weāve come. š¶š¤
2025 taught me to stop obsessing over results & focus on the effort I put in, because thatās what builds longevity.
Hereās to more audacity, creativity, peace, vulnerability, & growth in 2026!
Cheers, ya filthy animals! š„
