The making of this mix brought up a lot of feelings in me. I want to make a point to look at what is happening around us in the face. It hurts a lot to see it, to experience it, to acknowledge something so uncomfortable. That being said, we cannot look away. We cannot make excuses for why it is happening, or defend and support those responsible. A huge part of our population has been in denial for way too long. Justice for the oppressed has got to be served. Equality has got to become reality. It’s not going to happen by staying quiet.
I have chosen which side of history I will stand on, and I will do whatever I can to fight for those who’s voice is not able to permeate through the white washed walls that have been and are continuing to be built within our country. #WOKE.
(disclaimer: this mix was recorded live in one take on serato. it is not perfect, but it is honest.)
