One of my few redeeming qualities is that I’ve somehow retained a modicum of curiosity, and it’s something I’m thankful for every day. This manifests in a constant drive to discover new music.
Most days I firmly believe music is the most powerful art form we’ve developed as a species, but occasionally I wake up convinced cinema has earned this position… either way, I chide myself of not pushing the boundaries of my knowledge when it comes to either of these art forms.
Audrey Nuna is a Korean-American “hip-hop” musician who I’ve been fascinated by for a few years now. I put hip-hop in scare-quotes as I don’t think what she’s doing in nearly so easy to pigeonhole. Any of you who even vaguely know me will be surprised that her work connects with me – obviously I’m not her target. But there is something going on here that impresses me.
