India.Arie Spreads Love and Music


Listen Later

Grammy-winning singer/songwriter/producer India.Arie has returned to spread love and joy through music and words. Her latest album, due out in February, is a collection of enchanting and soulful electro-acoustic pop songs, full of smart observations, sensuality, spirituality, and yes, empowerment. On one tune, “That Magic,” she lovingly describes the connection between two people that we can all hope for. Her latest single, “What If,” begins with the memorable lines, “what if Martin didn’t stand up/what if Rosa didn’t sit down.” The title track, “Worthy,” is a mostly acoustic, yet powerful assurance, that every one of us is worthy of love, life, and “saying no when something don’t feel right”. Wordsmith and songstress India.Arie joins us to play songs from her forthcoming record, Worthy– Caryn Havlik
