Montreal-based Ethiopian rapper Naya Ali has been undergoing a bit of an evolution. Last year she released her debut, Godspeed: Baptism, then earlier this year, she became one of the inaugural winners of the SOCAN Foundation’s SiriusXM Black Canadian Music Awards. Now she’s back with her sophomore release, Godspeed: Elevated, and it explores everything that’s happened throughout this time as she’s honed in on who she is, living her life with purpose and chasing her goal of adding light to the universe.
