Today, rising Minneapolis vocalist and interdisciplinary artist Dizzy Fae debuts a new song, ‘I’m Good’. Written by Dizzy during COVID-lockdown, ‘I’m Good’ abstractly illustrates the fortitude required to survive all the trauma (new and old) surfacing during these challenging times. In an effort to give back to her community, Dizzy Fae will donate the first month’s proceeds of the song to Root to Crown’s Abundance Therapy Fund. Founded in Minnesota, the organization provides holistic therapy services to BIPOC individuals with financial barriers.

On the track, Dizzy explains; ‘There are similar stories in the world. Many actually, but no one has lived and is living exactly how you are. The things you go through sometimes will just never be okay. So I made this song to highlight the strength in knowing some things will never be okay, but you are going to be okay… shit, you’re gonna be good. Healing is a process that starts within, making sure your mind, body, and spirit can thrive within the madness.’

Produced by Kieran Watters, the song comes accompanied with a visual animated by Mortis Studios (Tame Impala, Adult Swim, Louis Vuitton).
