Happy New Year! We're back with Part 2 of our conversation with producer, writer & cultural strategist, Anasa Troutman. She is the CEO of ELoveate and one of the driving forces behind the career of Grammy winning R&B artist India.Arie. This episode we dive more into politics and talk of her time working on a presidential campaign and the pitfalls of trying change politics instead of changing the culture. We explore the idea that everyone has the capacity to create and what being an artist means as the path to liberation for our people. Anasa also tells her story of growing up in NJ, but becoming a woman in Atlanta, starting a record label, meeting India.Arie & more. Enjoy.
