19 & Dangerous by Ayra Starr

Nigerian artist Ayra Starr recently released her debut album and we can’t get enough of it! Ayra successfully captures the spirit of being 19 and trying to stand on your own feet as an adult. All the ups and downs of being a Gen Z woman including fashion, boys and youth are touched on with her hypnotic vocals. Keep an eye out for our favourite song Beggie Beggie!

His Only Wife by Peace Adzo Medie

A captivating novel is based on a young Ghanian woman’s journey into marriage and balancing a not-so-rosy reality whilst maintaining her commitments to her future and her family. Peace’s storytelling is full of humour and warmth, taking you on a voyage alongside the protagonist.

The Soft Set Power by Kem Beauty

London based beauty brand Kem Beauty is a favourite of ours! Their blush has an incredible formula and many Black girl friendly shades. The Soft Set powder is one of their newer releases and works incredibly well. It is an ultra-fine powder that locks in your makeup and creates the most seamless looking makeup ever!
