when the poems do what they do

Aja Monet's poems are a work of gravity. They are a fundamental for which all things are attracted, considered upon and enacted towards. Her work moves, constantly, between origin and outcome, allowing them to exist in converse. In her debut album when the poems do what they do, we glimpse her indefatigable commitment to speak. Those thematic origins of her album 'when the poems do what they do' at times center around Black resistance, love and the inexhaustible quest for joy.
