A Is for Anfang

Jonathan Chibuike Ukah, a celebrated lyrical voice among the African Diaspora, reminds us how the present and future are molded from our origins. Love, grief, the marching of time and spiritual endurance weave their varying modal melodies into a single chorus, honoring the land, events, and people that have formed his life, while offering hope for what has yet to come.

Ukah's lyricism invites reflection and meditation. Like "A" in the alphabet, every life-song has a starting point.
