“Beloved,” at its core, is a story of multiple hauntings: The remnants of trauma left in those forced to be property, the fury of a petulant baby spirit that seems to come back from the dead to find the mother who killed her rather than let her be taken into enslavement. The book holds horrors but also questions the beginning of freedom time. “Freeing yourself was one thing,” Morrison writes, “but claiming ownership of that freed self was another.” The work of embodiment, belonging, and rest become the central themes for the characters and, by extension, the readers. For Sharpe, “Beloved” is rich in techniques for refusing the logic of slavery. One is infanticide; another, Sharpe shared with the class, is love.

She held the book and read the title aloud: “Beloved.” She paused and reframed the word for us. “Be loved.” Sharpe told the class that the book's name is “an injunction, a command, a wish, a plea, a lamentation.” To love the self, to believe the self is worthy of love, and to let that love radiate out and fill up others around you.

A thick silence settled over the classroom as the students absorbed the force of the revelation. The first and final words of the book were not merely an epitaph on a grave: They were instructions for living. Be loved. What I was witnessing, I later realized, was more than a lecture. It was a portal into Sharpe’s methodology.

“I think with ‘Beloved’ almost every day.”

Larry June is starting to get the recognition he deserve. I love it.

Same thing with Ari Lennox. Who else you know can drop a EP and album back-to-back weeks, and both projects are fire? Ari did.

100 of my favorite Hip Hop Albums of 2022 Might be excessive but there was simply just a ton of music this year that I enjoyed and found myself going back to, and I believe each of them is worth checking out.  Each of the album titles here also links to either a bandcamp page or stream where you can listen to the project. Hopefully you’ll at least find one new album that you enjoy here, and as always feel free to reply with what you enjoyed and connected with the most this year. I’d love to know, and any other recommendations are definitely appreciated. This was an incredible year for new releases, not just for hip hop but for music in general which is why i’ll be posting another top 100 list for all of the non hip hop stuff I enjoyed from this year, hopefully in the next few days.  Peace.
