This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

The Questleff show is a production of I-Heart Radio. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Quest Love show.

I'm your host, Quest Love.

I became familiar with our guest.

I want to say 2004, 2005, back when, air quote, that site was in full bloom,

her demo was making the rounds.

And I forgot who put me on to it.

And all I can say is that, I mean, I was flabbergasted. I mean, you know, she did a majority of the

production, the writing, the recording by herself. So instantly, like, my antennas went up.

And, you know, I listened to it. I mean, now we, you know, we're in an age where everything is streamed and there's SoundCloud and there's ways to access records without the help of a major label.

But, you know, before, you know, 2007, that was hard.

So, you know, basically I just had a burnt cd and i mean i was sleep to it that's

pretty much my obsession to it of course when i heard from her next uh her debut LP she's part of the

the stone's throw community since then she has literally collaborated with i'll be here all day if I'd say the artist.

I mean, either Britney Howard, Brian Jackson, Anderson Peck, Lotus, Badu, Yassim Bay,

everyone, everyone but the roots.

And I got to change that quickly.

And I'm certain that she's tired of hearing this,

but yeah, she's the pioneer of the term stay woke. As we celebrate Women's History Month,

this is a person who makes history every day. You can check out her new album, Electrical

Field of Love by her band Harriet Tubman.
