Since childhood, it was obvious that twin sisters Naomi Diaz and Lisa-Kaindé Diaz would have music as the dominant fixture of their lives. When you have a father like the legendary Anga Diaz, how could that not be the case? That said, nobody could’ve expected the ways in which Naomi and Lisa have challenged the music world with their project; Ibeyi. For over a decade, the sisters have birthed, fostered, and evolved their own unique sound that blends r&b, soul, and dance with their Yoruba roots. Universally, it’s agreed that ‘no one sounds like Ibeyi but Ibeyi’ and that thought is further expanded on their latest offering, Spell 31. It’s their most decisive, concise, and personal body of work to date, but what was the journey to get here? That’s what this episode is all about, along with why the sisters hope these new songs make you “feel like gold.” You can catch Ibeyi live across the states this March, be sure to visit ibeyimusic.com for full tour dates.
