6.8 Featuring Sidney Madden

We're back with another edition of Not 97's Quarantine Sessions, recorded live on our Twitch account. Today's episode features Sidney Madden, an influential editor and producer at NPR Music. Sidney introduces a powerful unreleased track from Kayla Steen. We dive into the sounds of two budding African music scenes with a dance-ready delivery from Ghana’s Odartei and an infectious single from Nigerian artist Merry Lynn. Tasha delivers a heart wrenching ode to black womanhood on “Lullaby”, In Kind builds his own world on “One Way”, and Uno Hype inspires with “Elevate.” Amongst much more. 01 "One Way" by In Kind 02 "Deep Water" by Kayla Steen  03 "Lullaby" by Tasha 04 "Elevate" by Uno Hype 05 "911" by Merry-Lynn 06 "YSL" by Odartei  07 "Huh" by Scuti  08 "Same Songs" by Jeshi  09 "Child Hood" by Icy Simone    Art: Justin Jenkins Follow Not 97: ▶ Twitter: https://twitter.com/_NOT97 ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_not97 *Not 97 is powered by the innovative music company Amuse.io, making distribution effortless for independent artists everywhere. © NOT 97.
