https://egotickets.com/events/....iba-music-festival-2 inside a powerful AES conversation with Empress Ajé, creator of the ÌBÀ Music Festival, as she shares the vision, spiritual grounding, and cultural purpose behind this growing movement.In this rich discussion, Empress Ajé opens up about the meaning of ÌBÀ, the festival’s roots in Trinidad and Tobago, and why this year’s TriniGhana Experience is such an important bridge between Ghana and the historic diaspora. She speaks on honoring the ancestors, uplifting the divine feminine, and using music, performance, and community gathering as vehicles for deeper reconnection.This conversation also explores why the ÌBÀ Music Festival is a natural fit as an official D.O.O.R. event, and why repatriation must be understood as more than documents and logistics. It is also about spirit, belonging, cultural memory, exchange, and building real connection in community.From calypso and highlife to steel pan, ancestral chant, and the links between Ghana and Trinidad, this is a BlackCellent discussion for anyone interested in culture, music, repatriation, and the living ties between Black people across the world.Watch, share, and join the conversation.#empressaje #ibamusicfestival #door #abibitumi #aes #repatriation #trinighana #blackculture #diaspora #ghana #trinidadandtobago #culturalexchange #ancestralconnection #divinefeminine #blackpower https://egotickets.com/events/....iba-music-festival-2

The U.S. implemented a naval blockade on Iran earlier this week. Laleh Khalili, a professor of Gulf studies who researches the shipping and logistics industry and its impact on the global economy says it could lead the U.S. military to begin “firing on ships that it assumes are Iranian or carrying oil from Iran or other cargo to Iran.” Iran, in response, could “interpret this as a belligerent action,” ending the fragile ceasefire agreed to by both parties. “Iran is going to defend itself against this imperial imposition, and how it's going to do that remains to be seen.”

Meanwhile, explains Khalili, shipping disruptions in the Gulf have affected the supply chains of key resources including oil, aluminum, helium and fertilizer. "Transportation costs are going to be higher, so food prices are going to be higher; people's MRIs are going to be scheduled out by six months … semiconductor manufacturing is going to be affected," Khalili says. "The crisis is only going to get more horrific before it gets any better."

Lyrics below

If I told you I’ll never leave your side
Would you believe me
Or would you say na lie
Ewo would you say na lie
Ewo you’ll forever be my side
Be by my side
Forever by my side
By my side
Forever by my side

Yes I want you and I to grow old
And I don’t want nobody new
Dem talk say everything that glitter ain’t gold
But your glitter I dey choose
And you deserve a round of applause 
The way you clap it for your dude
And anybody tryna bring you any woes 
What dem a go hear is du du du
Don’t be rude
That’s my baby boo
She 10 like 8 plus 2
Don’t care what haters do do do 
Any dude wanna mess with you
Just call me on my phone
0 7 9 8 2 2 2

If I told you I’ll never leave your side
Would you believe me
Or would you say na lie
Ewo would you say na lie
Ewo you’ll forever be my side
Be by my side
Forever by my side
By my side
Forever by my side

My chick go check her
Sweeter than Acheke
Tilapia and pepper
Body no be bete 
Come lie on my kete 
Lick you like you’re letter
Signed sealed and delivered
Your back your necke 
I jack titanic
Your nyash iconic
Take cash go spend it
O gash don’t bend it
(Someone call the ambulance ay)
I lost my senses

Someone call the ambulance ay 
Someone call the ambulance ay
Way she back it up
Make me smack it up
Make I jack it up
Like a tyre truck

Someone call the ambulance ay 
Someone call the ambulance ay
Way she back it up
Make me smack it up
Make I jack it up
Like a tyre truck

She Roll it
Love the way she roll it
Control it
Girl make I control it
She locally from Trinidad
Internationally she be bad 
She don’t know where she is from
But already know where she is from
Coz her back Ghanaian
Her hips Angolan
Her waist Congolese
Her face Ethiopian
Her legwork Nigerian
And she bad South African
She the kinda girl I wan marry for her head
Somali
Complexion Sudanese
Her net worth is Mali
Skin rich Gabonese
Her winning like Senegalese
Her beauty Zimbabwe
But she cutie like Zambia
She fine Malawi 
Coochie clean Rwanda

Someone call the ambulance ay 
Someone call the ambulance ay
Way she back it up
Make me smack it up
Make I jack it up
Like a tyre truck
