Pleased to share with you the music video for my song Woke. Woke is deeply personal. It looks at the hypocrisy of virtue signalling and the trend based social justice jumping. When minorities facing prejudice/hate have been living with it the whole time, often ignored, often told we are making a big deal out of nothing or misunderstanding a situation. There is nothing to misunderstand about the residual and continued impacts of white supremacy.

Another Universe
My solo poetry show, Another Universe will be performed live at Hidden Door Festival in Edinburgh on June 16th and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival every day for the week of the 22nd of August at 7.55pm at Fern Studio, Greenside (Nicholson Place). It is a reflection on regrets and possibilities told through poetry.
New Single: Self Help
My new single Self Help is coming out!
Self Help is a punch back at the Wellness and Self-Improvement industries profiting off insecurities and the constant barrage of advice we all get on how to live our lives. A commentary about the current self-help culture that puts the blame of systemic issues caused by inequality and deprivation on individuals by telling them to ‘trying harder.’
The song is a Peaches meets Devo sounding fun bouncy number, a chance to forget about daily pressures and just have a dance.

Letter to the child I am not planning to conceive
I am really pleased to have my latest poem published by Mxogyny. A fantastic online magazine dedicated to writing related to women’s issues, gender and gender identity.
In this poem, I raise my personal feelings on whether to choose motherhood and try to discuss the concerns that all women face before deciding to have children
