  • BIO INDIA.ARIE Lauded As a Soul Music Superstar from Her Early
    BIO INDIA.ARIE Lauded as a soul music superstar from her early twenties, India.Arie has always been at once angelic and mystical while managing to never isolate her audience – she is as at home accompanying a hip hop artist as she is producing truly spine-tingling soul music. India’s message of healing, love, and compassion viewed through the lens of her indelible artistry and spiritual practice has made her a global difference-maker for nearly two decades. It was 2001’s seminal Acoustic Soul (nominated for seven GRAMMYs) and the groundbreaking self-acceptance anthem “Video”, that established her as a bold new transformative force in music. Twenty-two GRAMMY nominations later (with four GRAMMY wins), she endures as one of the most empowering artists in music history (she launched her own lifestyle/music brand SoulBird in 2011), notching multiple award-winning albums and influential, chart-topping singles, meshing soul, folk, pop, R&B and hip hop and redefining the boundaries of the socially conscious singer/songwriter. Recognized as a major influence for a new generation of socially aware artists, India is both ahead of her time and of it - an evocative creative force on a mission to spread healing, peace, love and unconditional self-acceptance through the power of words and music. It’s no secret to India.Arie fans that the word ‘worthy’ has been an empowering expression of self-love for her and her audience over the years. Faithfully repurposed as the title and theme of her brand new 16-track album, including 13 songs and 3 interludes, India’s first full-length offering in five years is set to impact a world finally attuned to the kind of empathic sea-change the humanitarian singer/songwriter has embraced her entire career.

    Artists as Mentors A mentor is a trusted friend, a teacher, an experienced “I’ve learned that person who encourages us to do people will forget what our best, to achieve more than you said, people will forget what you did, we may believe we can. Many but people will never successful people give credit forget how you made them feel.” to key people who have helped —Maya Angelou “As one chosen by destiny and richly endowed by nature, the artist must have a sense of obligation them on their way. toward those who are denied these riches. It is for him to repay nature and to offer his gifts to humanity, in The mentor-protégé relationship all humility of heart, as an act of gratitude for the grace bestowed upon him.” can be one of the most important —Serge Koussevitzky in our lives. In this exhibit are a few examples of people who have led and continue to lead the way for others. There are thousands more. Are there people who have helped you whom you want to thank? Are there people to whom you need to reach out a hand? “The life and essence of art – whether it is a painting, music or dance – lies in expressing a wellspring of emotion, the universal realm of the human spirit. It is a melding of the individual and the universal. That is why great art reaches out beyond ethnic and national barriers to move people the world over.” — Daisaku Ikeda, Founder of ICAP and President of Soka Gakkai International This exhibit is sponsored by the International Committee of Artists for Peace (ICAP), a coalition of artists and organizations dedicated to promoting global peace and individual happiness through concerts, exhibitions, educational activities and programs for young people.

  • Trends in American Fiction Morrison & Music
    ENG 352:420: Trends in American Fiction Morrison & Music Tuesdays and Thursdays: 11:30 AM-12:50 PM Room: HAH 421 Professor: Dr. Melanie R. Hill Office Hours: Tuesdays from 1:00 PM-2:00 PM and by appointment Location: Hill Hall 512 Phone: (973) 353-5182 Email: [email protected] Course Overview: In an article in The New Yorker entitled, “Toni Morrison and Nina Simone, United in Soul,” Emily Lordi writes, “Toni Morrison was such an exceptional talent and seemed to float so high above the fray, that it’s easy to forget she was a product of her time. But she was profoundly influenced by the work of contemporary musicians. She wanted her writing to emulate, ... ‘all of the intricacy, all of the discipline, that she heard in black musical performance.’” In this course, we will explore Toni Morrison’s canonical oevure from novels, Jazz and Song of Solomon to Sula and Beloved. In addition to Morrison’s works, we will examine the intersection of African American literature and music, as well as race, gender and spirituality. This seminar will juxtapose Morrison’s renowned literature with the performances of black musicians from Nina Simone and Curtis Mayfield to Issac Hayes and Aretha Franklin. As both text and performance, prose and poetry, and literature and music, studying the works of Toni Morrison offers an excellent resource for our investigation of black literary studies. This seminar is designed to give students a profound examination of Toni Morrison’s writing, and involve students in the kinds of research that the discipline of literary studies currently demands, including: working with primary sources and archival materials; reviewing the critical literature; using online databases of historical newspapers, periodicals, and other cultural materials; exploring relevant contexts in literary, linguistic, and cultural history; studying the etymological history and changing meanings of words; experimenting with new methods of computational analysis of texts; and other methodologies.

  • The Music of Donny Hathaway Everything Is Everything Donny Hathaway, 1970
    SUMPTUOUS SOUL: THE MUSIC OF DONNY HATHAWAY EVERYTHING IS EVERYTHING DONNY HATHAWAY, 1970 Keisha Hicks A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2014 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Rebecca Mancuso, Graduate Faculty Representative Ellen Berry Radhika Gajjala © 2014 Keisha Hicks All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor The song “This Christmas” by Donny Hathaway is played only once a year during the holiday season. His presence is so strong during the holidays for African Americans because he is one of the distinctive cultural markers of the season. The question at hand is why is he relegated to the Christmas season but what about the rest of the year. In 2010, National Public Radio (NPR) created the series 50 Great Voices as a way to expose NPR listeners to artists who were not at the forefront of public consciousness. On June 26, 2010 Donny Hathaway debuted as the “Neglected Heart of Soul” but does “neglected” hold up. I believe “neglected” becomes situational depending on who is doing the remembering. The objective of my dissertation is to locate Donny Hathaway as a central figure in 1970s Soul music, to understand his growing influence over contemporary artists, and his musical legacy. I used Stuart Hall’s “representation” as my overarching theoretical framework. I wanted a theory that would be fluid enough to be relevant in the different phases of Donny Hathaway’s musical career. By using representation I was able to identify and understand the musical influences on Donny Hathaway.

  • Songversation: I Am Light Part 5 Worthy
    Part 3: MY REAL STRUGGLE PartPart 5,4 -Section Section 1: 1: Worthy Healing Prologue Songversation: I Am Light Part 5 Worthy SongVersation: I AM LIGHT began, with me wanting to Address SkinGate 2013 - as a means to reassert my humanity. WHO? This SongVersation was sparked AGAIN, over a year ago now, in January of 2015. As I sat on the set of BET’s one hour drama series Being Mary Jane, I became very frustrated as I searched for words to explain spiritual principles to intellectual people. That experience haunted me, and compelled me to do just that, to best of my ability, here. The truth is, my highest hope with my platform has always been, to bring spiritual truths and love to the world through words and music, and these challenging experiences of the past 2 years (culminating on the set of Being Mary Jane) has shown me that it’s time for me to be able to speak that message as clearly as I can sing it. I remembered, (I didn’t exactly forget, but sometimes we need to be reminded of things) just last night, that I come from 7 generations of preachers, evangelists, singers and musicians that I can actually trace genealogically. It is in my blood. Thus, THIS SongVersation: I Am Light. What? In the previous 6 chapters of this SongVersation, I share backstory, inside stories and personal stories, all with the intention of building up to THIS!!!!! What you are about to read NOW, SongVersation I am Light, Part 5: WORTHY. If you want to join the full SongVersation - you can read the other essays here.
