ANCE$TOR MONEY

Hosted by Wadadah II, one of Chicago’s most respected Jamaican selectors, “ANCE$TOR MONEY”
bridges the grit of the streets with the spirit of the ancestors. The project celebrates my dual
lineage—Jamaican and Chicagoan roots—offering a sonic and spiritual testament to the connection
between African, Caribbean, and American diasporic culture.

This album is street but spiritual. It’s about honoring those who came before us while showing that wealth isn’t just financial—it’s ancestral, it’s purpose, it’s divine alignment

The album artwork, a collage of ancestral portraits, positions me among generations of family
and freedom-fighters—visually affirming the mantra printed on the back cover: “IN ANCESTORS WE
TRUST.” It’s both a spiritual declaration and an economic statement, tying directly into my growing
creative ecosystem under the ANCE$TOR MONEY brand—spanning music, streetwear, events, NFTs,
and cultural education.
