Stream my new single Béy on all platforms 💿
I made this song nearly a year ago while I was going through a lot of personal challenges. It may have seemed like everything was great; I was in a very nice crib, had money coming in from my freelance business, I was partying almost every weekend, but deep down I knew there was something wrong.
I was battling with alcoholism, addiction and traumas from my past started bubbling to the surface.
A few months ago I started speaking to a therapist which has been a tremendous help but nothing compares to the humbling experience of traveling to Senegal 🇸🇳
I have constantly had to check myself and my privilege during my time here. Living conditions are modest for most people to say the least yet everyone I see is happy regardless of their situation.
Alcohol and drugs are strictly forbidden, which as you can imagine is tough for someone who hasn’t gone without either for longer than a month over the last 12 years...
I have learned a lot about my family history and my deep roots here. I have taken part in esoteric rituals to help cleanse myself of my afflictions and I am finally beginning to have a new understanding of who I am.
Béy
(Goat in Wolof)
Everything I am going through is temporary. There will be a lot of sacrifices on the journey that I am on but as long as I stay strong and level headed I will prevail and eventually receive all the blessings and opportunities waiting for me which will allow me to in turn give back to my family and the people of Senegal.
More music dropping soon... 🐐
