Alpha is a space for redefining the meaning of a woman’s power. Power doesn’t have to be about fighting, standing up, or changing history. The power of these artists lies in their existence. From there flows truth, authenticity, vulnerability, nuanced representation. And at “10AM,” UMI finds peace with her partner. “If you are the lover, I am the rock/You are the tether if gravity ever stops/Over the ocean, drifting away/You are the sky I sing to every day/I love you,” the singer-songwriter coos on the passionate R&B ballad. Enter Alpha now and add it to your library to keep in touch with the women making music on their terms, uplifting one another and challenging notions through the simple matter of being. Now, that’s real power.
