about

***When you buy this album I will send u a digital copy of the Zine!!! ***

This album is a compilation of SongPoems i wrote between 2006 & 2016. It is a reflection, a journey, a glimpse into my 20's

The ZineAlbum has 5 chapters:
Unravelling
Bloodlines & Fractures
Diaspora
Heartbreak & Repair
Shakti & towards healing

Brown Body Stories explores themes of Diaspora, home, heartbreak & healing. It delves into the messyness, the honesty & unravelling of a 20 something Queer, Brown, Women’s journey through a process of exploring identity, family, & moving towards something other than pain & disconnect.
