A good watch .........

To Be Hip, Gifted & Black PT.1


Part 1: “Identity vs Art"

I found this very interesting to watch, a group of panelist discuss dilemmas that artists of colour face in the industry of art.
Being a musician, sometimes I find it hard having to hold back on certain things. There are a lot of things that the world needs to hear/see but  I have learnt to gradually do this step by step.


Being Black, you automatically get put in a box of "Oh, so she's urban" just the whole labeling thing annoys me, they expect me to act a certain way because of my Black skin.....it's just the ignorance of people.


Shut up and let the music do the talking......

Have a watch....
