[PLAYLIST] summer solstice 2018

in putting summer solstice together, i gravitated towards tracks that could really uplift my mood and give me a reason to get up and out of my seat and dance. so much of what i consume in media is marked by capitalism, by hate, by the sheer notions of accumulating power.

Lizzo - Boys

I worked harder on this music than I have ever worked on anything and I have never been this proud of anything in my life, I wrote everything. Made sure each song was exactly how I heard it in my head. It was hard, no one understood what I was trying to do. It took 3 years but finally….it came together

 both of these songs are out.

if you listen to them, thank you :’)

Cardi B, Drake, and the Art of Sampling Lauryn Hill
