Kaleena Zanders is one of the fastest emerging stars in music—and you’ll learn why in this conversation. Kaleena has been compared to tons of 90s house vocalists, and Zanders music brings the genre back to its queer, Black origins. Her new track “RELOAD,” which was written about her personal experience with police brutality at the end of last year captures the idea the love can heal over hate. We talked about her powerful song, what’s coming next and how 2020 has impacted her mental health.
FYI, the video for “RELOAD” is a must-watch! Hope you enjoy the episode and share with a friend.
