Jonylah Forever
Jonylah Forever
In honor of the tragic death of 6 month-old Jonylah Wakins on Chicago’s South Side earlier this week, Lupe Fiasco decided to release this somber dedication. One of the most heart-wrenching tracks you’ll ever hear, Lupe describes an inspiring tale in which Jonylah isn’t murdered, but grows up to be a very successful young woman. The story has a pretty incredible twist at the end, but I won’t spoil it for you. As one of the most remarkable storytellers in hip-hop, Lupe is able to craft together a beautiful song and a fitting eulogy for a girl whose life was taken much too soon.
