    Review

    Yaya Bey's album "Remember Your North Star" is a remarkable exploration of jazz, R&B, soul, and reggae, woven together with a profound focus on Black womanhood and the challenges wrought by misogynoir in romantic settings. Bey's command of genre fusion is impeccable, with each style enhancing her sharp, narrative lyrics that paint vivid scenarios ranging from intimacy to heartbreak. This isn't just an album; it's an emotional journey that resonates deeply through its storytelling, making it incredibly engaging and relatable.

    The personal threads Bey pulls from her own life, dealing with depression and family struggles, add a heartfelt depth to the album, particularly through tracks like "Keisha." This song stands out as both amusing and poignant, brilliantly portraying the complex emotions of a woman asserting her self-worth. "Remember Your North Star" not only delights with its catchy melodies and rich, autobiographical lyrics but also strikes a powerful chord through its honest portrayal of personal and societal struggles. This album is an absolute gem for anyone drawn to soul-stirring music that goes beyond mere sound to touch on significant themes of love, worth, and resilience. - Courtney
