The aim of the project is to raise awareness of the work being done by this organisation and encourage listeners to engage with and donate to the cause.

During a time of constant reminders of the dehumanisation of Black women I turned to the original song for comfort. After breaking down during the 2nd, 3rd ... & 8th replay, the solace it brought me became something so special and I needed to preserve it. I decided to use it as inspiration for a new song. 

I found the sampled beat on Youtube and the lyrics just started flowing. 

The world has been particularly unbearable recently. Writing this song brought me so much peace. I hope it does the same for you.

One Of These Days

Lyrics:
Turn off the light, close the curtains, and come into bed
You think I'm sleeping but I still can feel when it's empty

like a flower sitting in the sun 
a morning, maybe twenty.

we joke around in the bath 
if only they'd see us when we're happy 
please come back home before dark
i know that it's early but i am just like

a flower sitting in the sun 
and i am growing plenty.

I know that sometimes it gets quiet, i know it gets hard
I wish I could be a blooming garden 
but sometimes the water's too much 

for a flower sitting in the sun 
The gardens feeling empty

Like a sunflower
I'll follow the sun, i'll follow the sun,

I've made your favourite for dinner and wrote you a song 
When you're around, I feel taller
And that's all I know

A flower sitting in the sun 
And spring is coming early

Like a sunflower
I'll follow the sun 
Like a sunflower
I'll follow the sun
Like a  sunflower
i'll follow the sun 
i'll follow the sun 
i'll follow the sunshine

Sunflower

Sesa Wo Suban is the Adinkra symbol of life transformation, encouraging people to direct their actions to the pursuit and realisation of a positive change in both themselves and the world.  Not only does this project capture these ideas through its hard-hitting but uplifting revolutionary content, but it also serves both as a demonstration of the personal transformations and progress I have undergone and as an introduction to all that is to come!
Over nine chilled out lo-fi hip-hop beats from some of my favourite producers in the game, I use my lyrics to promote the beauty and upliftment of Afrikan peoples and culture, to spread warnings about the nature and dangers of the neo-colonial Babylonian power structures, and to advocate unity, self-sufficiency and knowledge of self as the keys to our freedom. All of this is delivered with great skill, creativity and catchiness, and showcasing my own unique musical style blending the complex lyricism of Hip hop with the energy and melody of Dancehall whilst maintaining the revolutionary Pan-Afrikan consciousness of roots reggae.
Alongside my own voice, the tape features guest vocals from an array of incredibly talented artists including phina, Jayder, Femi Nylander and Colombian rappers Wilmer Colleccion and Jorge Movilla, with the messages of each track supported and extended upon by excerpts of a 1962 speech by Dr Kwame Nkrumah. 
Altogether, Sesa Wo Suban is the culmination of years of hard work honing my craft as A. Maluka, and nine months of grind and meticulous perfectionism as I tried to live up to my vision and create the perfect introduction to Andre Jahnoi. So, it’s also the start of something new, and I hope it can be the vehicle to affect the sort of personal and social change to which I aspire. I really appreciate if you take the time to check it out, listen to the messages, enjoy the sounds, and support me on this journey! Forward!
