What started as a simple idea turned into something eye-opening. The artists who answered the call weren’t necessarily the ones you’d expect. In fact, many of the “obvious” choices never replied at all. Instead, we discovered a surprising, inspiring group of musicians — fans we didn’t even know we had — who showed us just how far this record’s influence has traveled. That discovery is what makes this project truly special.

We’ll be slowly leaking the participating artists as their tracks are delivered, so stay tuned.

The LP also features brand-new liner notes by Nabil Ayers — friend, fan, musician, author, and U.S. President of Beggars Group. Nabil’s incredible memoir My Life in the Sunshine explores his experience growing up mixed-race in America and includes a chapter titled “When Problems Arise.” Who could be more fitting to help tell this story?
