"Moonshine" is the powerful debut EP from Poebae, an evocative blend of hip-hop and pop with subtle undertones of gospel. Spanning 26 minutes across seven meticulously crafted tracks, this independent, self-produced, and self-engineered project was conceived and recorded in an intense week of creativity in May 2022 (I was in my second pregnancy after having to say goodbye to my first, at 18 weeks, eight months prior).
Dive into this journey with me that lays bare my raw and unfiltered emotions. "Moonshine" delves deep into the personal battles and triumphs of the makings of Poebae, exploring themes of trauma and pain, chronic pain and fatigue, post-traumatic stress disorder, grief and loss, and the pervasive shadows of anxiety and depression.
Each track is a testament to resilience and vulnerability, offering you a heartfelt connection to my experiences. With a unique fusion of genres, "Moonshine" stands out not only for its lyrical depth but also for its innovative soundscapes that blend rhythm, melody, and soul.
Join me on this transformative musical journey and experience the healing power of music through "Moonshine." This debut EP is not just a collection of songs, but a narrative of survival and strength, destined to resonate with anyone who has faced their own battles in life.
I hope that you are moved, inspired, and uplifted by my storytelling and innovative sound of "Moonshine."
