I Love Being Black is a powerful ode from Jonathan Lykes that is able to shine with just the slightest trappings of production. The song, coming from Lykes’ heart, blends charismatic vocals with a stunning acoustic guitar line. The presence of additional vocals to Jonathan’s main line ensures that I Love Being Black will resound loudly with fans long after it ceases to play. The song’s message of pride showcases only positivity and hope, both much needed in an era of fear and illness. I hope to hear more from Lykes in the months and years to come.
