Philanthropist. Grammy-Nominated. SunShine. | ||||||
Carolyn Malachi is all of the above; she is no doubt | ||||||
a Smart Chick with timeless material and class for | ||||||
millenniums. It is indeed an honor for us to be able to | ||||||
have her grace our cover. | ||||||
As I listen to songs from Carolyn’ s upcoming album“ The Road To Gold” I am reminded | ||||||
of childhood memories, smiles, moments with my dad and goodness all around me. The | ||||||
music is soothing and charismatic. I am quite InSpired by her short but big career. The | ||||||

in |
content, |

me |

understand |
the |

underground Spoken Word scene |
and its value to the local |

Recording Academy. Soon |
||||||||
thereafter |
the |
Grammy |
nomination |

happened. |
What did T. D. Jakes say? |
||||||||
Oh, yes: |
“ A setback is a setup for a |

comeback.” Amen! | |||||||||
RAM: What was the defining | |||||||||
moment for you as a Music | |||||||||
ARTist? | |||||||||
CM: Performing in South Africa with | |||||||||
Asheru and Hip Hop Pantsula put some | |||||||||
