Here, Bundjalung singer-songwriter&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/musicfeeds.com.au\/feeds\/djanaba\">Djanaba<\/a>&nbsp;gets personal talking about&nbsp;<\/em>Fountain Baby<em>, the 2023 debut from Ghanaian R&amp;B star <a href=\"https:\/\/musicfeeds.com.au\/feeds\/amaarae\">Amaarae<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Djanaba<\/em>&nbsp;<em>recently released her debut album<\/em>, Did I Stutter?<em>, via etcetc. In a press statement, she noted that the album<em> stood &#8220;far above what [she] ever thought [she] could create&#8221;<\/em>. &#8220;This album could honestly be my own how-to guide on figuring shit out in your early 20s,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Don\u2019t stop. Don\u2019t question. Don\u2019t change. Just grow. It hasn\u2019t been easy, but it has been worth every second.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The album can be streamed below, with Djanaba&#8217;s Love Letter to&nbsp;<\/em>Fountain Baby&nbsp;<em>after it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-djanaba-did-i-stutter\">Djanaba \u2013 <em>Did I Stutter?<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Did I Stutter?\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:16\/9;border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/4AlRLAS1bFJ8G6BmYfYwnE?si=kGG191_RSKGjPt_GdXpMRA&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first time I heard <em>Fountain Baby<\/em>, it was the day it came out. I was 23; freshly moved to Sydney, broke, and trying to make music my full-time thing. I remember hitting play on the first track, and before the first song even finished, I had downloaded the whole album. It was instant. The way Amaarae constructed the project \u2014 how every song flows into the next, each one so unique but still part of the same sonic world \u2014 was unlike anything I\u2019d heard before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was the kind of album that made you want to start over the moment it ended, just to feel it all<br>again. When I think about that first moment now, <em>Fountain Baby<\/em> feels like a time capsule of that era in my life \u2014 uncertain, full of potential, scary, and strangely beautiful. What Amaarae did on this album felt different. She didn\u2019t box herself in. The production isn&#8217;t bound to one genre; it\u2019s fluid, bold, and confident. That was a huge thing for me to witness as someone just stepping into producing my own stuff. When you\u2019re starting out in music, there\u2019s all this pressure to &#8220;pick a lane&#8221; \u2014 be it pop, or R&amp;B, or dance music. Amaarae didn\u2019t follow that. She made it OK for music to sound like a mix of all the soundscapes she loved, as long as it was good. And <em>Fountain Baby<\/em> is <em>so<\/em> good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-amaarae-angels-in-tibet\">Amaarae \u2013 &#8216;Angels In Tibet&#8217;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1.3333333333333;\" title=\"Amaarae - Angels in Tibet (Official Music Video)\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZSFb1IBVbgQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I remember listening to &#8216;Angels In Tibet&#8217; for the first time and just being floored. It starts off all soft and floaty, with these delicate strings, and then suddenly it drops. The bass hits, the energy shifts and it becomes this completely different experience. It\u2019s cinematic, playful, powerful. I love that kind of dynamic shift in a song \u2014 it keeps you on your toes. Then, there&#8217;s &#8216;Water From Wine&#8217;. That song is just a straight-up bop. The kind you hear and your body just <em>has<\/em> to move. But, it&#8217;s not just fun \u2014 it&#8217;s sonically stunning. There&#8217;s this lightness to it, even in the rhythm. It&#8217;s danceable, sure, but also so delicately constructed. That combination \u2014 beauty and movement \u2014 is kind of rare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, the music itself was more than enough. It felt like a friend, a mirror, a push forward. It reminded me where I was, and made me think about where I could go. Especially an album like <em>Fountain Baby<\/em>, which refuses to fit into one shape, one tone, or one mood. It&#8217;s a reminder that you don\u2019t have to, either. You can be complex. You can shift. You can be soft and then loud. Chill and then explosive. Just like <em>Fountain Baby<\/em>. That realisation might just have changed everything for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Djanaba will be performing as part of <\/em>Garrima: The Country Cries for Truth<em> at the State Library of New South Wales on Tuesday, July 8th as part of NAIDOC Week 2025.
