Can I Hold the Mic
Can I Hold the Mic is
inspired by the ever-evolving musical artist, Solange Knowles. Named after track
5 off of her latest album, When I Get Home, this show
tries to emulate the sentiment presented on the song/interlude. She says, in a spoken-word
style:
I can't
be a singular expression of myself
There's too many parts, too many spaces
Too many manifestations, too many lines
Too many curves, too many troubles
Too many journeys, too many mountains
Too many rivers, so many
Adrienne has often
felt this sentiment when trying to describe her musical taste. It’s a little
bit of this, a little bit of that, pulling from a lot of different inspirations
and areas of her life. That is what to expect when tuning in Thursdays 8-9pm on
WRUU: Something new, fresh, eclectic and eccentric.
On Can I Hold the Mic,
Adrienne hopes to highlight the beauty, depth, and norm-dissolving excellence BIPOC
artists and bands offer the world.
