July 27 2024 - Beauty Supply & The Old Guard

I filled The Purple Room with summertime vibes this week, to go with the beautiful, long days we’ve been having. And speaking of beauty, Noname, who is featured on this week’s cover, takes on the mythical connection between outer appearance and self-love in Beauty Supply from her 2023 album Sundial (which is a BANGER, please check it out). 

I also featured the amazing Lijadu Sisters who earned their place on the stage of the 1972 World Music Festival with their dope intertwining of Afrobeat, Jazz and Disco music. 

Thanks again for listening and here’s this week’s full playlist:
