✨ Brown Sugah Sessions Recap ✨
Brown Sugah Sessions was a night of true artistry—where we celebrated Neo-Soul, R&B, and Hip-Hop music, while paying homage to the soul singers who are no longer with us but forever live through the music.
Our very first session was dedicated to D’Angelo, and we were honored to welcome Justo from Brooklyn, NY, who shared his original music alongside heartfelt renditions from the late great’s legendary catalog.
The open mic portion was nothing short of magic. JonAnthony sang neo-soul gems straight from his soul, filling the room with a nostalgic warmth that wrapped around everyone present.
Nia Waqiah graced the mic with an open-verse serenade, beautifully accompanied by the prolific Daniel Spearman on keys and Tahir Harris on drums. Together, they delivered a soul-soothing soundtrack of affirmation, power, and intention.
R**t Taylor (R**t Starwind) shared a poem that reminded us why we fall in love with love—over and over again.
DJ Dangr set the tone and lace the room with a flawless blend of the hottest neo-soul and hip-hop.
We closed the night with a special moment from the host, Amirah Kane , singing “On & On” by Erykah Badu —a sweet, full-circle ending that set the tone: Brown Sugah Sessions is here to stay. We’ll go on and on and on… as long as the culture stays alive.
Residents of Waterfront South, Camden gathered for an evening filled with coffee, cookies, laughter, and connection—leaving with their souls full, rejuvenated, and at peace, ready for the new year.
✨ We plan to bring Brown Sugah Sessions back in 2026, with an incredible lineup throughout the year—stay tuned.
A special thank you to Heart of Camden for allowing us to host this beautiful night at The Artist Den inside the MJD Fieldhouse.
Endless gratitude to Melissa Chinici for capturing the soul and essence of the evening. Her storytelling through the lens is authentic, real, and true—thank you for documenting the night in its purest form. 🤎
