The bARd

A bARd is someone who is very skilled in their respected craft. Here are some artist we think deserve the highest praise this month

I am thankful for every job I didn’t get. Because if I had, I wouldn’t have even applied to be a WNBA DJ. I would’ve been locked into a corporate marketing role, only halfway fulfilled. While stressing myself to squeeze in time for my music. All while pouring into someone else’s dream. Those “no’s” weren’t losses tho…they were alignment. They led me straight to my yes. What’s meant for me never misses me.

The worst part of my job is the non-stop Zoom meetings and endless emails. The best part? Getting away from my computer to speak with artists. Sharing information, providing value. Thank you to @TheRemixProject for hosting us at their Toronto office for an Executive Session.

In the time that it took you to complain about the “mainstream,” you could have pressed play on 1 new artist. If you want better, or different, it’s on you. Nobody else.

What’s the best way to listen to a new album: A. Car B. Public Transportation C. Going on a walk D. At home by yourself E. At home with your friends on speakers

Yuh, putting in dat work!

Honestly, I was just trying not to cry lol I’ve written & recorded a lot of music in my lifetime—but this by far is the most special record I’ve ever done. Legacy ❤️ “Isley’s Hymn” feat @robertglasper “Come As You Are” album by @terracemartin & myself drops tonight at 9 PT!

guysssss 🥺 i’m stamped now?

looking for my dance partner this summer, who can dance konpa?

me waiting for summer to start like ⋆.ೃ࿔🌸*:･

basically

yall complain when the rollout is ass or half baked.. then when the rollout is quality & well executed it’s “manufactured” — just stream the music and leave the marketing and business to the niggas working on the projects bc if you see the shit, the marketing worked, correct?

🥳

nah that doechii tiny desk is insane. her delivery & breath control is really fucking crazy. then all the black women and braids, milan STILL djing & hyping the room up WITHOUT DJ EQUIPMENT, the live arrangements? iconic.

Heart of a woman 💘

My favorite artists telling me they love & respect what I do, no one can take that away from me 🥲🥲

fun fact, I didn’t connect the dots until after the song was done that I said matador and the chorus of the song is des(Olé)! subconscious songwriting!
