We have to celebrate all we are as black people and all we have to offer. In this episode we talk about the Beauty in our Blackness.
You know you're black when? What makes us so special? What do we love the most about being black?

Privilege is a complex thing.
Those who have it often don't realise how much it makes life easier for them. Those who don't understand all too well how much the lack of that privilege affects their lives.
In this episode, we go a little deeper and unpack the complexities of knowing you have privilege and what you can do with it to help others.

Welcome to The Special Series!
We know, we know! You’ve gotten to know us before and we’re doing it again! Here’s the thing, we last did a ‘Delve Deeper On Us’ as our very first episode - a whole 4 years ago. A couple of things have changed since then - and we’d like to think we’ve grown a little too.
In this episode, we talk about our green flags, what would bring us knocking on each other’s door late at night; fun facts and tidbits for you to enjoy.
Let us know what surprised you, what tracks and what you thought we’d say in the comments!

Earlier this year, we got to sit down with Zimbabwean-born artist, Kye and talk all things music and how spreading joy is at the core of her musical expression. We had a blast talking about her musical influences, going down nostalgic memory lane and speaking about representation matters.
Get into our interview with Kye and let us know your thoughts.
