A self-proclaimed recoevering people pleaser, she dedicates ‘sayso’ to others who have went against their gut for the benefit of others. Especially women and queer folks who’ve carried the weight of others, and now must learn to build boundaries and reclaim space for themselves.

Real, honest grit and emotion carry the day on this track. And I am here for it.”
“Cam Carter and Ray K team up on this hypnotic Hip Hop vibe about the fakeness that permeates through not only Southern California but society on the whole.

“Hypnautic is one half of the popular hip hop group Top Flite Empire. ‘Memories’ is a lyrical bomb just waiting to explode in your ears and heart. The track definitely is a tweener in terms of genre but that does not diminish the impact of the talent or writing.
A track to feel and complex enough to give you new nuance each new listen.”
