WHere Angels Emerge
Where Angels Emerge is a sonic offering — part prayer, part reckoning, part reclamation. This 13-track album is a deeply personal and political meditation on self-acceptance, remembrance, and the quiet radical act of becoming whole. Drawing inspiration from neo-soul, alternative rap, and poetic spoken word, the project moves through themes of vulnerability, rage, ancestral memory, and divine timing — all grounded in the emotional truths of a Black, queer, and non-binary life.
Across the project, Ace centers the question: What does it mean to bloom in a world built to unravel you? Each track functions as a lyrical excavation of identity, written through the body — from the aching confessionals of “Note to Self” to the spiritual insistence of “Divine Timing,” to the joyful resistance of “On Me.” The repetition of hooks, intentional silences, layered harmonies, and vocal textures act as both form and feeling — mirroring the tension between tenderness and strength.
Influenced by artists like Saba, Noname, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Aaron May, RUBII, and Solange, Where Angels Emerge moves beyond genre to create a new sonic language: one that affirms, disrupts, and heals. These songs aren’t polished testaments to perfection — they are living recordings of process. They reflect a self in motion, always becoming, always shedding and returning.
Born from the need to document not just survival but spiritual and creative emergence, the album stands as a call to those navigating the slow work of finding and loving themselves. In a world of detachment and disillusionment, Where Angels Emerge invites listeners to stay — with themselves, their wounds, their dreams — long enough to witness their own becoming.
