LISTEN
I’ve gotten quite into Liam Bailey , who does some very authentic feeling reggae with a modern flair. Rosie Lowe has also resurfaced in my playlists, having just released a gorgeous album this year, and jena keating is an Irish artist not to be ignored! Doing big gyal tings.

READ
I’ve been in a loop reading Murakami novels this whole year. My favourite is probably 1Q84 . It’s such a captivating read and full of so many philosophical nuggets, too. Also, salt. by Nayyirah Waheed has been keeping me poetically inspired.
