βOne thing I will die with is the truth. Your accusers donβt want you to know your worth. Own your agency. You are all that plus more!β
I am deeply humbled and honoured to share that I have been awarded the Maxable Global Excellence Award 2025 for Excellence in Arts & Cultural Advocacy for Inclusion.

This recognition is so much bigger than me. It is about every unheard voice, every silenced story, and every brave soul who believes that inclusion is not just a word β it is a lifeline, a promise, and a daily act of love.

I dedicate this award to my ancestors, my community, and to all the dreamers who continue to paint this world in colour, even when life tries to keep us in black and white.

To everyone who has believed in me, supported me, collaborated with me, and clapped for me (even when I sing off-key β which, I promise you, is only about 0.5 out of 10! π) β thank you. You are all part of this win.

πΆβ¨ One thing Iβd say about my singing isβ¦
Most of my performances at these events arenβt even rehearsed β they turn into experiences, moments of adventure, improvised around the melody and the spirit of the room.
I sing Rubato β I craft alternative or original arrangements. This is the kind of thing that really breathes at open mics and jam sessions, where itβs about trust and flow.
But the truth is, most musicians donβt care β theyβre often just there to get what they need. And thatβs okay. Music is my lifeline β so I stopped bothering about who gets it or not. Instead, I focused on my healing journey and my purpose.
When Iβm ready to bring back my residencies, theyβll be rehearsed and shaped with a different approach β rooted in the same soul, but with the respect it deserves.
Lastly, I donβt sing the same phrase twice. As a songwriter, thatβs a gift. To an unfamiliar or inexperienced musician, it can feel chaotic β and often the blame falls on the singer. But thatβs life.

In all, Iβm grateful for music β because I know who I am inside.
Thanks for the music. πΉβ¨
I want to express my deepest gratitude to the Maxable Global Excellence Awards, the University of East London, my family, friends, and everyone who stands up for true inclusion and equality in the arts and beyond

May this be a reminder that when we stand together for whatβs right, we all rise. May we continue to amplify voices, break barriers, and create spaces where everyone belongs.
βOne thing I will die with is the truth. Your accusers donβt want you to know your worth. Own your agency. You are all that plus more!β
Hereβs to more love, more light, and more inclusion for all. πβ¨
With gratitude and hope,
