Stokes & Machine Feat. Algebra Blessett & Lin Rountree [2022] - ALL MY BLACK [Songking Records]


I believe that Stoke & Machine are Eddie Stokes and James Michael Day. "ALL MY BLACK" appears to be their first single which features Atlanta's Algebra Blessett (who featured with Anthony Davis recently on a reworking of BeBe & CeCe Winans in 1988 titled "Heaven") and Detroit jazz trumpeter Lin Rountree.

They state that the song is their official entry into the new "Songs For Social Change" category for the 2023 Grammy Awards category with a stated mission:

"In the face of anti-critical race theory bills that turn back the clock on sharing our nation’s true racial legacies and histories, this modern twist to the traditional resistance song advocates for all children to be taught unvarnished, fact-based histories of both the policies and people that shaped this country. No child’s history should be erased for the “comfort” of another’s. - L. Michael Gipson, The Gipson Gazzette"
