Jidenna is one of my favorite artists. The messages in his music are so fierce and uplifting. So when he came up with a musical journey/love letter to the African Diaspora in 2019, "85 to Africa," I just had to choreograph something.
You can find my very "lyrical" choreo to "Zodi" on Video Set 4 of Afro-Indo Groove.
To purchase, these and other videos, see details in yesterday's post.
Get your on and support a local Black-owned business and artist today!

"Daddy used to tell me, "Look up at the stars
It's been a long time, but remember who you are
Circle of life, and one day, I might not make it
Circle of life, and one day, I might not make it
But you just gotta find your way back
Big, big world, but you got it, baby
Find your way back
Don't let this life drive you crazy
Find your way back"
A strong favorite from last year's The Lion King: The Gift soundtrack: Find Your Way Back by Beyonce.
This album was on heavy repeat and helped me get through some hard times, so naturally I had to pay homage by choreographing at least one song from it.
You can find my choreo to "Find Your Way" back on Video Set 3 of Afro-Indo Groove. See yesterday's post (2/1) for purchase info.
It's because of Black History that I have a present and future. This Black History Month, celebrate by supporting a small Black business/artist.

-A video of yourself (30 seconds or less) talking about AIGroove
-A video of yourself doing a routine (and/or talking about AIGroove)
-A photo with a quote I could credit to you

Any and all to be shared on my social media pages. Thanks much for considering! 😘
