Do you care about me?
Oh care about me..

Like you say you do
I bet you don't 
But I'll let it go 

Like you say you do

But I'll let it go 

Yeah I'll let it go 
You're too smooth to believe
I'm in love I'm naive

NEGUS POEM 1&2
sleep in my eye
but still I gotta rise
we wind thru cycles of time
yet we transcend this life

who's supposed to ride or die for me, if not i?
fear not, know that you're divine!
real negus never die

Forever, Ya Girl

@joycewrice and I wanted to sing a duet, so I wrote this ballad about an existential aspect of the night life: to be, or not to be, on the guest list. I take on the roll of both sides, first the caller who needs to cut in line, and then the artist who tries to explain why the guest list is closed. Joyce is trying to set boundaries on the hook. Boundaries are important. Devin Morrison @devinmorrison and Mndsgn @mndsgn made the beat, and gatdam, what a beat it is…

Although Charles may be new to some, she has held a long spanning relationship with music that goes back to girlhood. She was raised by a Haitian mother in Brooklyn where the sound waves in their home was filled with artists like Johnny Hodges, Frank Sinatra, Chaka Khan, and Nat King Cole. She attended the famed arts high school, LaGuardia High School for the Performing Arts where she studied flute and vocals. Her early life was full of stage performances; as a kid she participated in musical theater, pageants, and talent shows in New York City. Eventually, she landed at the School of Jazz and Contemporary Music at The New School for college where she met artists like alto saxophonist Lakecia Benjamin and others. Perhaps better known as a singer, Charles has earned her title as a bonefide flutist. Her playing adds vibrant swaths of color and emotional texture to her music.

The album opens with a breathtaking rendition of Billie Holiday’s “God Bless the Child.” This song, and the album overall, flexes Charles’ impressive arrangement skills. The song features a powerful group of musicians—Benjamin Julia on electric guitar, Dezron Douglas on upright bass, Anwar Marshall on drums, Shedrick Mitchell on organ, and Tayzaro on cello. On flute and vocals, Charles floats above the soulful current of the band, singing the song over a dramatic blanket of electronic sound. The lyrics ring with equal power as the music. When Charles sings the lines “Yes, the strong get more/While the weak ones fade,” the connection to black women’s struggle is palpable. “My experience moving in the world as a black girl has always been, I have to be strong. I have to keep it together; I have to sort of live up to the standard,” says Charles.

At its core, Y’all Don’t (Really) Care is a clarion call for a more intersectional vision of the world in which black women can live more freely. The interlude “Pay Black Women” offers the most explicit instruction on some of the ways that care can be expressed. It contains a sample from a film project produced by Charles in 2021 entitled Love Letter to Black Jazz Girls.  Through the voices of three black women, the track draws attention to the racial gender wage gap but also to the treatment of black women artistic producers more broadly.
