Cali Gray connects with Africa on My Boy
Cali Gray -
Brooklyn: Cali Gray is fusing her Caribbean roots with her African heritage on the new soca-meets-Afrobeats, high-bred release, My Boy.
The New York-based soca/dancehall act has teamed with producer Kyle Phillips of Bad John Republic to evoke the energies of West Indian and West African rhythms on the track.
Gray, whose real name Calika Grayson, said the merger is a true reflection of her artistry and personality
“It’s me. This is who I am. I grew up in the Caribbean with culturally-aware parents that not only surrounded me with music and movement from Africa, but also explained and interpreted those in a modern Caribbean context,” Gray said in a media release.
