And in our conversation, we talk about her formative intellectual and musical influences that include gospel, Bob Marley and Patti LaBelle to name a few. Camae is an exceptionally eclectic figure. She released her debut album, Fetish Bones as Moor Mother in 2016, and has since put out a number of albums solo and as part of the group, Irreversible Entanglements, and most recently her second album Jazz Codes. Hailing from Aberdeen, Maryland, she’s a songwriter, composer, vocalist and artist who spent years organizing and performing in Philadelphia’s underground music and cultural community before moving to Los Angeles. For this episode, I’m speaking with Camae Ayewa also known as Moor Mother. You’re listening to Many Lumens where we talk about and find meaning in the intersections of art, social change and popular culture. Maori Karmael Holmes: As part of their enduring commitment to justice, equity and expression the Open Society Foundations are proud to sponsor Many Lumens.
