SOL Development
Sol Development is a hip-hop, jazz, and soul ensemble that uses music and media as mediums to transmit messages concerning the intersections of social justice, hope, and love, told from the perspectives of The Black Experience. Our work, The Sol of Black Folk, has made appearances nationally, however, its practice rests in the communities of Oakland,CA. It is the live soundtrack supporting the healing retreats of Mother’s who have lost children to gun violence, a collaborative work with BE-IMAGINATIVE. Our latest work has transcended into literature through the authorship of our release Sol Affirmations.
SOL Affirmations Toolkit and Audio Experience
A collection of affirmations and manifestations that were created with the sacred intention of helping us to remember our goodness.
