Moor Mother (US)

Moor Mother
is an experimental music project by Camae Ayewa, a musician and poet from Philadelphia, United States. Her work has been labelled "hardcore poetry," "power electronics," "slaveship punk," and "protest music. Ayewa herself resists categorization, preferring to self-identify through terms such as "time traveller" and "truth teller." A self-described Afrofuturist, she uses spacetime-bending sound and lyricism to reformulate concepts of memory, history, and the future in an afrocentric or afrodiasporic tradition.
