Read moreHere’s a new mixtape from The Black Opera titled “80z Babiez To The 2Gz 2 (The ExperiMix)”. Says The Black Opera: “We wanted to follow up ‘African America’ with something that wasn’t as heavy, so we worked on the second installment of our ’80z Babiez 2 The 2Gz Experimix’ series. We feel right in the middle of this Old Heads vs New Wave battle. So in this new mix you can hear our influences come across, young and old, in a way of expressing it that we feel only we can do it.” Stream or download the 16-track offering below. 80z Babiez To The 2Gz 2 [The ExperiMix] by The Black Opera

Read moreTaken from The Black Opera’s latest album “African America”, which is available now.
Read moreIn 2016, many Black Americans are unaware of what country their lineage dates back to or any traditions of their ancestors. Many Black Americans question the origin of their last name. Add this to the fact that many Black Americans don’t feel safe walking or driving the streets of America and you get a people that feel disconnected from their roots, and don’t feel at home in their own country in these current times. This echoing sentiment within the Black community is what influenced the music and art collective The Black Opera to create works that reflect these current times with “African America”. At its core, “African America” is the story of a people that feel lost, a people that don’t feel welcome in their place of birth. This is where Black Americans currently exist, a place where the laws and law enforcement don’t seem to serve or protect them. “African America” can be viewed as an actual plea to build a new home, or just to relocate mentally. “African America” is the promised land of freedom.

Read moreWith the first single from his debut album “Midnight Run”, Obie Iyoha gives you his take on coming of age on “Lost in America”. You may have heard similar stories of finding oneself as an adolescent before, but Iyoha’s perspective is uniquely refreshing. Here’s the song description in his own words: “Lost in America” is a tale about the actions and consequences of peer pressure due to a lack of guidance. A looking-glass to going astray on the not so sunny side of America, as an African boy. “Midnight Run” is out now, grab it here.
