And I'm So, Well, it's really great to have you on the show, no name. Can you start by introducing yourselves? You know you don't really need an introduction.

But how do you like to be introduced and what do you want people to know about you?

What do I want people to know?

Well, I perform under the name, no name.

I'm Fatima, most folks in the real world call me Fatima. I am a young

person trying to navigate the world and gain better understanding. I think I do that through music but also just you know things like this just having conversations with
