ANAIIS: HTTPS://WWW.ANAIIS.WORLD [https://www.anaiis.world/]
From a young age, anaiis was drawn to voice as a vessel for feeling, inspired by artists like Ella Fitzgerald, whose singing she likened to a nightingale, “a singer of infinite song,” speaking in a recent New York Times article. This early fascination grew into a broader creative lineage through the sacred work of Black thinkers and artists, not as echoes but as foundations that allowed her to explore her own voice. Nina Simone who cut through silence with urgent truth. Maya Angelou and James Baldwin who wrote from the depths of the soul’s undercurrents. Alice Walker’s spirited storytelling. Filmmakers like Ousmane Sembène who capture the nuances of resistance and identity.
These influences shaped anaiis’ approach to creating with conviction, imagining with freedom and honouring curiosity as a compass. anaiis’ visual accompaniments to her music have long been an essential extension of her storytelling. Working closely with her partner Tayo Rapoport and detail-oriented collaborators like Ronan McKenzie, she builds out worlds through film to uncover an artform that invites us to sit between something that feels both fantastical and grounded all at once.
Devotion & The Black Divine is soothing and spine-chilling at once, imbued with key messages of self-love. Rather than being defined by the past, anaiis moves towards something less contained and more aglow with possibility. Her voice stretches beyond its known range to seek out new qualities. On her new album, she speaks more about gratitude and acceptance than worry. An ongoing research on curbing the ego and the weight of fear. She captures the non-linear nature of healing and makes it feel beautiful through her tender lens.
