Gabriel Teodros & AirMe "Frida Kahlo"


Some more grown-up rap. Love to okayafrica for premiering the single! This one is all about being 30-something, not settled down... and increasingly isolated as a result.

I love Frida Kahlo for so many reasons, but one reason I think her art resonates with so many people is because she painted from a place of pain and turned that pain into medicine. I think the isolation she felt might of been amongst the deepest pain... hence all the self-portraits.

As a musician I feel like each song becomes another self-portrait too.

"just a pad and a pen, i sip my coffee slow, wake up late and take a walk alone..."

love
