I’m no longer the girl who ran away from home to escape my family trauma... I’m the girl who left and came back no longer a part of the cycle ... it took a decade but I did that

This was definitely one of the wildest experiences in my life. Not because it was tiny desk but because this moment was a catalyst for me to let go of mad shit I’ve been holding onto and acknowledge my grief in a substantial way. And having to do that publicly was insane.

𝐓𝐞𝐧 𝐅𝐨𝐥𝐝 ~ 𝟓.𝟎 𝐛𝐲 𝐘𝐚𝐲𝐚 𝐁𝐞𝐲 Yaya Bey’s “Ten Fold” is a messy experience overall. It has some really luscious anthems that beg to be replayed, but it also has some bland and even bad tracks that offer very little substance. Yaya is a good performer…

The album is called Ten Fold cause I grew up Muslim and my dad’s name is Ayub which is the same story as Job in the Bible. And because Job was faithful whatever he lost God gave it back to him Ten Fold. As a second generation musician I always told myself I would be the Ten Fold.
