But in 2018, when I saw San Francisco Opera’s production of the \u003cem>Ring\u003c/em> cycle—Wagner’s 17-hour epic opera of gods, nymphs, giants and valkyries—I couldn’t help but notice the crowd in the $10 standing-room-only peanut gallery at the War Memorial Opera House.

But in 2018, when I saw San Francisco Opera’s production of the \u003cem>Ring\u003c/em> cycle—Wagner’s 17-hour epic opera of gods, nymphs, giants and valkyries—I couldn’t help but notice the crowd in the $10 standing-room-only peanut gallery at the War Memorial Opera House. These were people decked in flamboyant outfits, who’d camped out in line for cheap tickets, who sometimes slept on the floor during intermissions and who, I learned, \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbc.ca/radio/sunday/the-sunday-edition-for-october-27-2019-1.5335017/ring-heads-of-the-world-unite-1.5335022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">regularly traveled around the world\u003c/a> to see as many stagings of \u003cem>The Ring\u003c/em> as possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other words: They were Deadheads.

Like a dewy-eyed Deadhead waxing rhapsodic about Jerry Garcia, I turned into a proselytizing \u003cem>Ring\u003c/em> zealot, urging anyone within earshot to give this slow-moving, 17-hour, 162-year-old opera a chance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13835972\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13835972\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Iréne Theorin as Brünnhilde and Daniel Brenna as the title role in Wagner's 'Siegfried.'\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-1180x786.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping-520x346.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/06/SiegfriedBrunnhildeSleeping.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Iréne Theorin as Brünnhilde and Daniel Brenna as the title role in Wagner’s ‘Siegfried.’ \u003ccite>(Cory Weaver/San Francisco Opera)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Which is why I’m here to tell you: \u003cem>The Ring\u003c/em> is coming back.

So the assembly line is heavy with a plethora of knowledge, a plethora of game and a potluck of camaraderie to the point where we get the job done and pull off the heist, respectfully.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: Respectfully [[laughs]]… the Bay Area it breeds a lot of linguists, ya know obviously E40 is of it. But did the Bay influence [your wordplay ability] as well?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Champ Green: Of course, most definitely. I think also, when we speak of hip hop, I’m damn, near just as old as hip hop. I think I’m forty two. So I have front row seats to the game. Right. And then I had three older siblings and I was just able to be saturated in it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Champ Green: And also growing up in Oakland, every turf got their own little slang… it could be a bunch of your partners, y’all say what your little slick word, and then it could spread like wildfire because one of your partners may stay in the West and the other partner me stay in a Deep East and the other partna stay in Richmond and it’ll become a thing. So, in the words of Mac Mall, “serving game is my occupation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: But you individually have a lexicon that you go through that you pull from. And I just wanted to break down just a couple of terms that I want to hear you define them. So when you say things like “…Who’s selling peanuts?… They going to George Washington Carve they niche out out this game.” What does that mean?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Champ Green: Everybody’s always focused on the big, you know, “I need to do it big like this”, but a peanut is small. So, I mean, you gotta start small to get big, but who really going to sell some peanuts who really gonna be on the front line in this underground railroad. You know, speaking the Sojourner Truth…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: Essentially like, who’s selling peanuts, who’s doing the grunt work with historical context?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Champ Green: Exactly… Then the inventor of peanut butter is George Washington Carver, right? He came up with roasted peanuts, peanuts in different ways. So how are you going to George Washington carve your niche out?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: In your latest album, Agape Elephant in the Room, you released a single with Ian Kelly on that single. You have just crazy wordplay back and forth. That I wanted to quote, I might get it wrong so correct me if I do, but you go “longitude, latitude, horizontal, parallel telephone next person nextel communicate plant seed bean stock sky high sky’s limit moonwalk. HBCU…” The way that one thing leads to the next from the outside perspective, is almost like looking at a slinky go down stairs.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Champ Green: OK\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Pen: From the inside.

"content": "\u003cp>The keyboardist, composer and bandleader Chick Corea — one of the most revered figures in contemporary jazz, but whose work spanned fusion to classical — died on Feb. 9 at age 79. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dan Muse from Chick Corea Productions confirmed his death to NPR on Thursday afternoon. Corea’s team also reported his death on \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/chickcorea/posts/10158422599898924\">social media\u003c/a>, saying that he died from “a rare form of cancer which was only discovered very recently.” No other details about his illness and death were shared.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Always curious, Corea created work that limned many musical currents. Born June 12, 1941, in Chelsea, Mass., he grew up playing piano and drums and listening to bebop, as well as classical music. After moving to New York as a young man, he played with Cuban percussionist Mongo Santamaria and played with Miles Davis at the dawn of jazz fusion — performing on electric piano on such albums as \u003cem>In a Silent Way\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Bitches Brew\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Miles Davis at the Fillmore\u003c/em>. His own band Return to Forever (with Stanley Clarke on bass, vocalist Flora Purim, drummer Airto Moreira and reeds player Joe Farrell) was an important marker for fusion music.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As well as being named a \u003ca href=\"https://www.arts.gov/honors/jazz/chick-corea\">Jazz Master\u003c/a> by the National Endowment for the Arts in 2006, Corea won \u003ca href=\"https://www.grammy.com/grammys/artists/chick-corea/9341\">23 Grammys\u003c/a> (as well as being nominated 67 times). In 2018, he told \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/10/31/662519569/chick-corea-back-in-boston\">\u003cem>Jazz Night in America\u003c/em>\u003c/a> about what he believed his role as an artist was: “We have a mission to go out there and be an antidote to war, and all of the dark side of what happens on Planet Earth. We’re the ones that go in and remind people about their creativity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The social media announcement of his death included words from Corea himself: “I want to thank all of those along my journey who have helped keep the music fires burning bright. It is my hope that those who have an inkling to play, write, perform or otherwise, do so. If not for yourself then for the rest of us. It’s not only that the world needs more artists, it’s also just a lot of fun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And to my amazing musician friends who have been like family to me as long as I’ve known you: It has been a blessing and an honor learning from and playing with all of you. My mission has always been to bring the joy of creating anywhere I could, and to have done so with all the artists that I admire so dearly — this has been the richness of my life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/15IHNYq6stw\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2021 NPR.

Corea’s team also reported his death on \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/chickcorea/posts/10158422599898924\">social media\u003c/a>, saying that he died from “a rare form of cancer which was only discovered very recently.” No other details about his illness and death were shared.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Always curious, Corea created work that limned many musical currents. Born June 12, 1941, in Chelsea, Mass., he grew up playing piano and drums and listening to bebop, as well as classical music. After moving to New York as a young man, he played with Cuban percussionist Mongo Santamaria and played with Miles Davis at the dawn of jazz fusion — performing on electric piano on such albums as \u003cem>In a Silent Way\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Bitches Brew\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Miles Davis at the Fillmore\u003c/em>. His own band Return to Forever (with Stanley Clarke on bass, vocalist Flora Purim, drummer Airto Moreira and reeds player Joe Farrell) was an important marker for fusion music.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As well as being named a \u003ca href=\"https://www.arts.gov/honors/jazz/chick-corea\">Jazz Master\u003c/a> by the National Endowment for the Arts in 2006, Corea won \u003ca href=\"https://www.grammy.com/grammys/artists/chick-corea/9341\">23 Grammys\u003c/a> (as well as being nominated 67 times). In 2018, he told \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/10/31/662519569/chick-corea-back-in-boston\">\u003cem>Jazz Night in America\u003c/em>\u003c/a> about what he believed his role as an artist was: “We have a mission to go out there and be an antidote to war, and all of the dark side of what happens on Planet Earth. We’re the ones that go in and remind people about their creativity.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The social media announcement of his death included words from Corea himself: “I want to thank all of those along my journey who have helped keep the music fires burning bright. It is my hope that those who have an inkling to play, write, perform or otherwise, do so. If not for yourself then for the rest of us. It’s not only that the world needs more artists, it’s also just a lot of fun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After hours, Oram began recording and manipulating sounds on magnetic tape, experiments that led to the co-founding of the BBC’s Radiophonic Workshop in 1958. Another pioneer, Delia Derbyshire, crafted sounds for nearly 200 BBC programs, including the \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/75V4ClJZME4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iconic theme music for the sci-fi series \u003cem>Doctor Who\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem>,\u003c/em> which debuted in 1963.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Modular synthesizers soon followed, and the development of the first commercially available models was guided by women. \u003ca href=\"http://www.wendycarlos.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wendy Carlos\u003c/a> advised Robert Moog on the design of the first keyboard-based model, and introduced it to the general public on her 1968 album, \u003cem>Switched-On Bach\u003c/em>, which sold more than a million copies. \u003ca href=\"https://www.sevwave.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Suzanne Ciani\u003c/a> realized the \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/7vZGeHBfxU0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">creative potential\u003c/a> of a contemporaneous system designed by Don Buchla, which allowed artists to patch components together to control characteristics of sound such as pitch and timbre.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Juilliard-trained composer \u003ca href=\"http://retiary.org/ls/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Laurie Spiegel\u003c/a> describes these technologies as revolutionary. “The way composing was previously done was you wrote on a piece of paper, with a pencil, a set of instructions for someone else to make music,” she recalls. Free to realize her own creative vision, Spiegel programmed computer-based music generation systems while working as a researcher at Bell Labs in the 1970s. She was able to fashion \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUgSJt7Q7gw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">entirely new sounds, as well as variations within sound itself\u003c/a>, and share her music directly with audiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22PRZO2HnJE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1977, Spiegel’s work caught the attention of NASA.

However, she is quick to point out that she is too often seen as an anomaly. Spiegel recalled being part of an active community of women who were affiliated with university-based and non-profit electronic music studios in and around New York City.

Free to realize her own creative vision, Spiegel programmed computer-based music generation systems while working as a researcher at Bell Labs in the 1970s. She was able to fashion \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUgSJt7Q7gw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">entirely new sounds, as well as variations within sound itself\u003c/a>, and share her music directly with audiences.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/22PRZO2HnJE'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/22PRZO2HnJE'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>In 1977, Spiegel’s work caught the attention of NASA.

However, she is quick to point out that she is too often seen as an anomaly. Spiegel recalled being part of an active community of women who were affiliated with university-based and non-profit electronic music studios in and around New York City.

And music was the only thing that we really had to grasp on to when it came to culture… We moved to the Bay when I was about 10 years old. But before that, we were in kind of the rural Midwest, in this little town called Belleville, right outside of east St. Louis. There wasn’t much happening, it was kind of desolate in a way. So it was hip hop and music that gave me life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: I think both of my parents have always been very conscious of the world they live in… And my dad especially was always very radical and very pro Black. And just like ‘you need to understand the world is not set up for us.’ And the music was the medium that he taught me through…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: How has the Bay influenced your art?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: Oh, my gosh, in so many ways! The Bay taught me how to dance! The Bay has also influenced a lot of my style and the ability to rock thrift shops, not because that’s all you can afford growing up, but because you can make that fly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: One thing that I really admire about the Bay is that there is a strong activist history and there’s also a strong hyphy history. And when we’re talking about bringing those sounds together, like, what does it mean to talk about identity and power over a Bay slap rap? But, yeah, it’s hard to say what the Bay hasn’t done for me. I owe so much to the Bay [laughs] Especially with the first project we sampled Mac Dre, and it was like an ode to the Bay and that was like part of the tone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: You mentioned the Mac Dre line… That’s what inspired me to ask that question. You sampled the line “sometimes I’m not myself, sometimes I’m another man.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: I really enjoyed that line in particular because he was like, you don’t know who I am. Or I can recreate who I am, or like, you might see me one way because of the body I live in, but, you know, what else is there? Also it’s just like some like sassy clapping back against misogyny. I was like sixteen feeling myself. Because so much of the reason why I feel like I couldn’t talk is because I was born into a girl’s body, and so much of what inspires me to write is clapping back at the patriarchy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: It’s a high vibration clapback, if you will.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: HA! Let’s go! High vibration clap back. I love it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PEN: But another line that stands out to me correct me if I butcher it… “reading looks reading books, reading minds, reading charts.” Did I say that right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: “Reading books, reading charts, read myself, it’s a work of art, way more work than to fall apart…”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: I was really– and I still am– an astrology nerd. So reading birth charts was part of my hustle when I didn’t want to get a nine to five and I wanted to only do things I genuinely enjoyed. I read birth charts for people. And then reading myself, you know, introspection is hard work, but you can’t let yourself fall apart. You got to keep reading into it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: … So, you’re calling us from Hawaii right now, where you’ve been for months, is it influencing the music that you’re producing?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: That’s such a big question because I’m constantly processing it… how few black folks are here. I see more white folks than brown folks, indigenous folks out here. And I’m like, who gets to be here, who doesn’t and why? I’m really grateful to have the access to the kind of retreat that I need to grow and heal from my own, like, hurts and things. And I’m hella grateful for that… And in terms of the overarching narrative that’s going on here with the history of colonization and how it shows up in the present day. I think about it all the time. There’s colonization all over, in the Bay, like there’s gentrification, all these things. But it hits different here.

And music was the only thing that we really had to grasp on to when it came to culture… We moved to the Bay when I was about 10 years old. But before that, we were in kind of the rural Midwest, in this little town called Belleville, right outside of east St. Louis. There wasn’t much happening, it was kind of desolate in a way. So it was hip hop and music that gave me life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: I think both of my parents have always been very conscious of the world they live in… And my dad especially was always very radical and very pro Black. And just like ‘you need to understand the world is not set up for us.’ And the music was the medium that he taught me through…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: How has the Bay influenced your art?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: Oh, my gosh, in so many ways! The Bay taught me how to dance! The Bay has also influenced a lot of my style and the ability to rock thrift shops, not because that’s all you can afford growing up, but because you can make that fly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: One thing that I really admire about the Bay is that there is a strong activist history and there’s also a strong hyphy history. And when we’re talking about bringing those sounds together, like, what does it mean to talk about identity and power over a Bay slap rap? But, yeah, it’s hard to say what the Bay hasn’t done for me. I owe so much to the Bay [laughs] Especially with the first project we sampled Mac Dre, and it was like an ode to the Bay and that was like part of the tone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: You mentioned the Mac Dre line… That’s what inspired me to ask that question. You sampled the line “sometimes I’m not myself, sometimes I’m another man.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: I really enjoyed that line in particular because he was like, you don’t know who I am. Or I can recreate who I am, or like, you might see me one way because of the body I live in, but, you know, what else is there? Also it’s just like some like sassy clapping back against misogyny. I was like sixteen feeling myself. Because so much of the reason why I feel like I couldn’t talk is because I was born into a girl’s body, and so much of what inspires me to write is clapping back at the patriarchy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: It’s a high vibration clapback, if you will.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: HA! Let’s go! High vibration clap back. I love it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PEN: But another line that stands out to me correct me if I butcher it… “reading looks reading books, reading minds, reading charts.” Did I say that right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: “Reading books, reading charts, read myself, it’s a work of art, way more work than to fall apart…”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: I was really– and I still am– an astrology nerd. So reading birth charts was part of my hustle when I didn’t want to get a nine to five and I wanted to only do things I genuinely enjoyed. I read birth charts for people. And then reading myself, you know, introspection is hard work, but you can’t let yourself fall apart. You got to keep reading into it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: … So, you’re calling us from Hawaii right now, where you’ve been for months, is it influencing the music that you’re producing?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: That’s such a big question because I’m constantly processing it… how few black folks are here. I see more white folks than brown folks, indigenous folks out here. And I’m like, who gets to be here, who doesn’t and why? I’m really grateful to have the access to the kind of retreat that I need to grow and heal from my own, like, hurts and things. And I’m hella grateful for that… And in terms of the overarching narrative that’s going on here with the history of colonization and how it shows up in the present day. I think about it all the time. There’s colonization all over, in the Bay, like there’s gentrification, all these things. But it hits different here. You know, it really does.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: … The coqui frogs are really loud at night. They sound like birds. And so when I’m recording at night, they get into the recordings of the songs. And so it ended up being the whole soundscape of an EP… Literally sounds of rainforest entering the music now [laughs]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>PEN: So being that your parents put a seed in you in terms of like hip hop history, culture, the importance of the art. What role do you play?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JADA: I think I’m a weaver of community, like to hold space and open space whether it be the community center or a cafe where folks can cipher, for poets or hip hop artists to come together and see each other’s craft and like, love on each other…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Rightnowish is an arts and culture podcast produced at KQED.

That same year, a young couple in San Francisco heard Coltrane in concert, sharing a jolt of higher purpose when he seemed to fix them in his sights with the bell of his saxophone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That couple, Franzo and Marina King, went on to \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/09/23/915846867/five-decades-on-an-eclectic-church-preaches-the-message-of-john-coltrane\">establish a church\u003c/a> devoted to Coltrane and his spiritual message, incorporating \u003cem>A Love Supreme \u003c/em>as their chief liturgical text.

We’ll delve into the spiritual mysteries of \u003cem>A Love Supreme, \u003c/em>from “Acknowledgment” to “Psalm,” and consider what it means to be of service — to a calling, to a community, and to the music that sparked it all. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2021 WBGO and Jazz At Lincoln Center.

And if you’re looking for a song to use as curriculum this month—or any month—I suggest “Warrior Queen.” It’s another uptempo recording, full of lyrics honoring women who lived as warriors, in many forms of the word.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13892042\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13892042\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2021/02/0-5-1020x1212.jpg\" alt=\"Queen Iminah plays the drums while wearing a guitar over her shoulder.\" width=\"640\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/02/0-5-1020x1212.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/02/0-5-800x951.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/02/0-5-160x190.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/02/0-5-768x913.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/02/0-5.jpg 1203w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Queen Iminah. \u003ccite>(Carol Dutra)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>African American luminaries\u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/1997/06/24/nyregion/betty-shabazz-a-rights-voice-dies-of-burns.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Betty Shabazz\u003c/a>,\u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/freedomsummer-hamer/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Fannie Lou Hamer\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/president-biden-takes-office/2021/01/25/960417969/biden-administration-will-speed-up-efforts-to-put-harriet-tubman-on-20-bill\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Harriet Tubman\u003c/a> are mentioned on the same four-and-a-half-minute track as the \u003ca href=\"https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/the-queen-who-would-be-king-130328511/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Egyptian pharaoh Hatshepsut\u003c/a>; \u003ca href=\"https://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/pwmn_2/hd_pwmn_2.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Queen Nzinga\u003c/a>, who once ruled the Kingdoms of Ndongo and Matamba (modern day Angola); and \u003ca href=\"https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-africa-44772345\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Yaa Asantewaa\u003c/a>, the Ghanaian warrior queen who fought against British colonizers in the 1800s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>From Ghetto 2 Goddess\u003c/em>, which officially drops in March, is named for what Queen Iminah describes as her “personal journey of ascension.” She says the term isn’t about being better than anyone—it just reflects her own experience in going from “hanging out in strip clubs and throwing my life away” to traveling the world, developing educational workshops and focusing on her art.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s been \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/CD-wudQsK4Q/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">open about her experiences\u003c/a> in the past, and hopes to continue to discuss her philosophy with the young women she works with, as well as anyone looking to better themselves and their community—especially people of the African Diaspora.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s about breaking out of temporary oppression,” says Queen Iminah. “And embracing the multifaceted origins of humanity; all of the spectrums we come from.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Queen Iminah is joined by Jahi of Public Enemy’s PE 2.0 for a livestream on Saturday, Feb. 6, live from the Great American Music Hall. \u003ca href=\"https://www.slimspresents.com/e/queen-iminah-136717590995/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Details here\u003c/a>. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
