Its called Dream Study, she explained beforehand.
Its very inspired by Howard University, and me spending more time in America.
Ive been working on a research project with the university in Washington, DC.

What really caught her interest in the storied Black universitys archives, though, were the yearbooks.
Particularly the ones from the 1990s, she explained.
Every year they have a homecoming, with performances of different hip-hop artists coming to celebrate.

So I was thinking about conscious and cosmic hip-hop.
How it kind of takes on the mantle of intellectual thinking, and kind of takes it further.
Different cultural references combining, in something quite essential, is the way she puts it.

I think I want to do something thats not superfluous.
