Cloud 9 Donnie
“Happy to be nappy, I’m black and I’m proud that I have been chosen to wear the conscious cloud.”
I remember when my cousin first spoke about Donnie. I hadn’t heard of him yet and I asked her to compare him to someone else and she couldn’t. After listening and vibing to his music I have to agree. The brotha is soulful. His lyrics are profound and his vocals are earthy yet crisp. And it shows up in “Cloud 9”, his ode to natural hair. He talks about the strength, beauty and versatility of our hair in a truly poetic way.
