In celebration of BlackHistoryMonth, Dreamville rapper lute_west9 shares a playlist of his favorite songs 🎵
"To me, Black History Month is a time to highlight and remember those who have contributed and paved the way for us to be who we are and where we are," Lute tells. "No matter the road ahead, our ancestors had it tougher. It's a time to reflect on how those same people inspired us, and a reminder to push those boundaries. We have an obligation to make the road a little smoother for those that are following us.
Below, the Charlotte, N.C. rapper breaks down the decisions behind some of the key tracks he chose for the playlist.This is one of those songs where you can't help but be proud to be Black. Usually, I turn my music down when I'm riding through neighborhoods. But when this song plays, I don't care what neighborhood I'm in, I turn it up to the max! "Alright" makes you feel proud of being Black, and reassures you that your struggles don't define who you are.
