ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"I Hope I Do It Justice" is an uplifting, inspirational music album centered on fatherhood, hip hop, and justice.
The album is inspired by my 2nd born son, Justice. Throughout the album, I weave together personal experiences, social commentary, and spiritual insights that center on the concept of justice. The lyrics touch on topics such as identity, social issues, family, and spirituality. Each song explores facets of justice, from the personal level, as well as for society, at large.
Justice is a topic that has been on the mind and heart of many across the world, as of late, so I feel that this album is very timely. Through my own experiences, my studies in social justice, as well as my spiritual background as a member of the Baha’i Faith, I feel I have a unique and valuable contribution to make towards the discourse on justice. And music is the best way I can do it.
I will be releasing the album one song at a time, over the coming weeks, with the full album being officially released on October 28th, 2024, which is my son, Justice's, 4th birthday.
