Creating a new music genre is like crafting a new identity. Multi-Award winning artist, Arooj Aftab, sits with me to discuss the bravery needed to push beyond rigid musical expectations and create a new sound. Arooj discusses navigating and educating an industry on how to hear her voice. This conversation is inspiring to listen to, particularly for those whose sense of self is reflected in their art. It is a powerful reminder that music can be a powerful tool for helping us make sense of the world’s complexities.
