The wide-ranging experience and musical background that Miss Storm has, along with her life experiences and factoring in the critical events of past and present have culminated in her upcoming release titled "Quicksand", an insightful, thought-provoking track shedding light on the African American experience in America, in particular, highlighting the inexplicable acts of violence against its community that have tragically gripped the news headlines over the past couple of years.



"Quicksand" features the dynamic talents of rapper Madam X and is set for official release February 1. It is a standout track off the upcoming Black Dreams project and its raw lyrical content and soundscape display Miss Storm's dexterity as an artist as she unapologetically touches on the heart of social and political issues touching African Americans.

Miss Storm reveals the concept behind the song in further detail as she affirms that she is "speaking for millions who are distraught about the epidemic of state violence against African Americans. She names the names of those who have become world-famous for tragic reasons: George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor. She does it to remind us of what we've lost and how far we still have to go".



Sinking in quicksand confined to this slave Island  

Designed from a master's plan we’ll never have the upper hand  

Sinking in quicksand derived from my motherland

Another dead African and nobody gives a damn
