In going through the most difficult season of my life, I have learnt what it is to rejoice. To sow, without promise of reap. To just be. I believe that what binds us together, as people, is a simple vulnerability. And it is in being vulnerable, in sharing ourselves, in choosing to love and to fight when appropriate, that we can find our strength. In a busy life filled with distractions, our greatest asset is to know how to be present. How to accept that vulnerability. And how to sow in that present, not without hope, but with honesty. It is this form of ‘being,’ which produces true art.
The Art of Being, or TAOB, is my first mixtape; a collection of music and sung poetry that captures the origin, thoughts, fears, heartbreak, joy, frustrations and aspirations of my self…especially over the past 2 years in which I have learned to lean not on my own understanding. Its work is honest, unafraid but also deeply vulnerable. It will be released in the middle of June 2015 (date will be revealed in due time via my page, linked below).
I’ve just created a Facebook page for all things music-related, so you can follow here:https://www.facebook.com/iamsutra1 And i’ll be sharing more about the mixtape, who I worked with/the process, lyrics (later on) and more, through this medium.
Genres you can expect? :) TAOB is a unique medley of electro, neo-soul, jazz, electro and Afro-music. Put simply, it’s alternative and it encapsulates most of my different influences. I cannot wait to share with you guys!!!!! Thank you so much for your support!Love,-S.Tumblr: youngthatiam.tumblr.com
