Today I sang at the National concert hall in Dublin for the 100 year commemoration of Ireland’s history of the civil war and reclamation of her land in 1922. I sang an Irish song called Mna na heirinn with the symphony orchestra! This for me is a moment in history!!

People often choose to select what they want to see. Truthfully it’s easier to judge and categorise, Doesn’t mean it’s right.
Humans are complicated. What makes me, me is due to so many variants.

The fear and hate seems like it’s hitting a new boiling point in Ireland. If they are able to burn down a hotel that accommodates those seeking refuge they are letting you know they can do worse. Action needs to be taken now by the government.

Hello everyone. I am okay. I am not in fear of my life. The issues and various ways racism manifest is a constant thing Black people have to face and navigate constantly.

It’s actually ridiculous the amount of hate and racist shite Denise Chaila constantly gets. I don’t get it.
It should not be a norm that black Irish artists are targeted or expect racism for showcasing their work.

I’ve been feeling extra lonely this week. Most likely because I’m releasing a new track about love that’ll be out in the next few hours.
I need y’all to like the heck out of it because I need the emotional support. It’s so vulnerable I feel like I’m exposing a part of me.
