🌊 @jamaicamoana 🍃 KEEP IT REAL
“This was the most honest I’ve ever been in my mahi and I felt power in speaking from Jam (self), rather than Jamaica (the persona). I believe I make the best music through honesty and this is the most raw I have ever been - it is so liberating. I know there is someone who aligns with my experience of loss and will find comfort in having this on their playlist. You will get there my love.
I love you my Bud. I miss you every day and I know you made this all happen for me. This is me showing the world how proud I am to be your baby. Donut & Bud to the world.”
