EVENT recap
GOOD GRIEF BY SOLAUREN: OUT NOW!
“Lauren’s music powerfully uplifts and challenges the industry, echoing Nina Simone’s words, “It’s an artist’s duty to reflect the times.” She doesn’t create art for art’s sake; she uses it as a tool for social change, to uplift our communities, our lives, our people, and our world. ”
