When I think about Africa, I think about how its aesthetics have permeated world culture. That is not to suggest that African culture is monolithic. To the contrary, this one land mass is a wellspring of various ethnicities. Long before Europeans began to colonize the continent, Africans had their own climate of conflicts, but their shared respect for locale, lineage, and language is something that has continued to live on to this day. In African thought, it is understood that our time here on Earth is merely transitory. We never "die." We are energy. We change forms. It's science. This world is a reflection of the place our ancestors reside and their world is a reflection of ours. We are interdependent beings that rely on one another for survival. And it is through sound/vibration/music that we communicate. All songs composed by Nicholas Payton (BMI) except "MadmwazÃ©l Ayiti" co-composed with Kevin Hays and "ACM Remix 1, 2, & 3," co-composed with Kevin Hays, Vicente Archer, Joe Dyson, Daniel Sadownick and DJ Lady Fingaz PRODUCED BY NICHOLAS PAYTON Recorded, mixed, and mastered using the PAYTONEsonicTM programming process
