"I'm really in love with all these genres. It's not something I'm moonlighting in just to become this teacher of particular audiences. No, I just understand that some people are into the hip-hop record and some people are into the noise record, and I'm just so happy that the message can be carried in both of those records."
"Irreversible Entanglements formed in 2015, when Ayewa connected with fellow DIY musicians, bassist Luke Stewart and saxophonist Keir Neuringer for an impromptu performance at a Musicians Against Police Brutality event in New York, which was organized after the police killing of 28-year-old Akai Gurley."
