“Welcome to the mixtape. These words woven from old ideas & new perspectives are not something I came to alone. I’m blessed to be in community with some next-level magickal individuals. Much of what motivates me to make & share music is the abundance of inspiring conversations & ideas condensing from the unique atmosphere in our Appalachian holler.

Amidst mass media fear-mongering, I don’t believe I’m alone in hungering for authenticity, revolutionary conversation & solution-oriented ideas. I felt called to export some of these rare tropical fruits of thought & perspective to contribute my small part to the larger conversation.

Evolution is the topic. How are we going to adapt to all the ways things are changing? This mixtape is a freely given gift to hip hop culture which has given me so much, and anyone who desires to live in a more beautiful & harmonious world.” ~Numinous the Bard

“Orlando-based rapper/singer E-Turn will release her third full-length, Young World, this fall on Fake Four Inc. Backed by the soulful, melodic boom bap of Swamburger (Solillaquists of Sound), E-Turn utilizes a multitude of deliveries and croons to issue a call to arms against the maladies of modernity.

The title of the album refers to how in the grand scheme of history, life as we currently know it is extremely young. Hip hop is young, too. While early returns of the digital age are awash with tales of rampant greed, cruelty, and alienation, E-Turn expresses hope that the tools at our disposal can be used for the greater good of humanity. And hip hop, at its best, can play its part. Entertainment helps us forget ourselves. Art helps us remember ourselves.”

“Special thanks to every brethren and sistern from around the world that are featured on this album. Special thanks to Amos The Ancient Prophet for making this happen. And many blessings to all my brothers and sisters from our mother earth. Let love and happiness continue to fall upon you always.”
