MALIA "Black Orchid"
When Malia described Nina Simone, she thinks of a "Black Orchid", "Something rare, beautiful, powerful, mysterious, mystical other world-of a black-and breathtaking. "
Malia is fascinated by the human warmth and brutal honesty that have always marked the music of Nina: "When she sings classics like 'Do not Explain' or 'Porgy', we feel how she appropriates them in the way interpret them. "
For Malia, choosing to interpret the songs of Nina Simone today is that now, at the age of maturity, she heard these songs in a way that exceeds their language, and she naturally expresses his gratitude to his "musical mentor" by dedicating this tribute. (in accordance with Long Wave)
