Just finished bingeing the first 5 episodes of the Oyasound Podcast hosted by Sabine Blaizin, what a gift! I’m in love with this project and the invitation it offers to dive deeper into the collaborators, stories, histories, and connections to, from, and beyond Haiti and across the diaspora that shaped the album Tonight We Fly (Aswè A Na Vole) by Sabine Blaizin and Okai Musik.

Sabine holds such a grounded, generous space for her guests, collaborators, and musical fanmi (family), offering them their flowers and receiving hers in return.

What emerges is a beautiful glimpse into the love, intention, and sacred care that goes into creating AfroDiasporic music. I’m looking forward to new episodes.

Tune in! You’ll leave nourished.
