LaSpeaks Volumes [2022] - Joy Comes in the Mourning [Self Released] (Full Album)

A debut album (?) "Joy Comes in the Mourning" by LaSpeaks Volumes who is spoken word, poet, rapper LaShawnae Smith. The majority of the album is spoken word with "Far Away" and the title track "Joy Comes in the Mourning" being the only musical ones.

The album was released on Bandcamp on 19 Apr which states: "LaSpeaks Volumes shares her most intimate and vulnerable stages of her life after mourning from the loss of loved ones. But despite of, she recognizes things about herself and her life that she took for granted before. She now understands that she can have JOY even when you're hurting." It has gained a wider released on major DSP's yesterday.

I found a video of her performing two of her 'hard hitting' poems which is reminiscent of the late Gil Scott-Heron.
