Because the patriarchal minded consciousness cannot see past itself it lives in fear of the divine feminine energy. This energy will not be suppressed nor will she be denied her place any longer. She has demonstrated her wisdom through great patience and tolerance with grace and unbounded intelligence. But she grows tired and weary of the parade of manipulative ideologies that serve no other purpose than to control that which is not controllable. It is with fire and the power of a thousand suns that she emerges and sets course for a new world.
Coming from a disadvantaged place in the society and world where various forms of oppression is a daily occurrence, alone we eventually lose the strength to continue fighting against our oppressors. 'RISE' is an anthem to fuel and give strength to anyone who's loosing hope fighting for a positive change in the society and world at large. We can only do so much alone but together we garner the strength, encouragement and motivation to RISE above our oppressors and beyond.
A lot of women feel silenced in their societies. They are made to feel small and like their opinions do not matter. Sing a song for women everywhere means “let’s speak up for gender equality for women all around the World”. This message is amplified by 4 female voices of Artists from 3 countries asking everyone to support women more and ignore the traditional expectations of women. This song also encourages these women to look beyond societal stereotypes and dig deeper to find their value, worth and strength. Their magic!
Sometimes to affect change we choose to address the problems at their core. This song however offers an alternative that transcends those things and reminds us it is through cooperation and kindness that we can rise above. Our collaborative musical journey has been in and of itself the best example of how positive energy evolves and nourishes the common spirit within us all. Something magical transpired in the making of this song. Something beyond normal channels. Something we know beyond all else. A simple message best shared through music.
