DESCRIPTION:
Maimouna Youssef and Brian "B.Kyle" Atkins team up again to create a powerful visual for "We're Already Royal" - one of the leading songs from Maimouna's forthcoming mixtape - The Reintroduction of Mumu Fresh. This video project shows how the modern day African American community still holds the same indicative set of core values, morals, and ethics instilled throughout history and evident in ancestral memory. Let it be known that at the core, we are Kings and Queens, despite the assumptions or misconceptions others may have of us as a people.
