In this episode Isis and Odessa engages in an amazingly candid yet soulful conversation with the beautiful Sevana.
Sevana is a multi-talented writer, singer, producer, actress and advocate from Westmoreland Jamaica.
REPRESENTATION MATTERS is a philosophy Sevana abides by, her blackness and femininity a central theme throughout her work. Sevana shares her powerful story of self belief, self discovery and self love through art and how her work is reflecting that light back into the world.
She talks passionately about what the Black Lives Matter movement means to her, dark skin representation in media, her latest projects and struggles with Covid.

In this episode Isis and Odessa sat down with Gladstone Taylor, an inspiring young author and writer with a strong message about following your passion and integrity.
Though his writing is explorative and non-genre specific, in the main Gladstone is a music writer whose work appears in major local and international publications such as Backayard Magazine, The Fader and Afropunk.
His debut book, KingSun :The Testaments of Sunlight and Water is the work of an introspective, toiling mind weaving together a melodramatic, angular tale of Jamaica.
Listening to Gladstone you can hear expressions of that same nuanced, multi layered thinking that has come to define his work. It is not a question, Gladstone is a Jamaican creative on the rise and we love to see it.
Find out more about Gladstone here and connect with him on Instagram and Twitter.

For our very first episode we thought it fitting that we go on a nostalgic stroll around Kingston with two people who have lived it and who curates it, our special guests Kingsley 'King Omar' Goodison Producer of the 'Annual Tribute to the Greats' show and Nicole Patrick-Shaw Deputy Executive Director of the Institute of Jamaica.
Together they take us on a fascinating journey down memory lane, along the way we learn how Kingston became the global cultural Mecca it is today.
