  • Grass Maiden: Wake Up Live Review | Part 2
    2026/09/03
    Cracking open a yuzu sparkling coconut water and diving into the eclectic soul of Grass Maiden's four-track release, Wake Up Live. Grass Maiden, yes, Grass Maiden. I'm about to get into part two in a trilogy series that I'm doing on an artist. Anna is the vocalist and creator of Grass Maiden, and if you remember, I did part one where I listened to and shared a project from two years ago—five songs from an album on YouTube called Live at Norfolk. And now there's one from a year ago that has four songs, and it's called Wake Up Live. ​This first track here—which I originally caught as ""Khrizzia’s Dreaming" while driving, but is actually titled "Khrizzia’s Dreamy Bells"—wow, this is beautiful. There's two Zs in there, you know, like in Italian with pizza, it sounds like a T-S or T-Z-A. Khrizzia’s Dreamy Bells. Anna is an artist in Virginia Beach, at least that's where I have had the pleasure of meeting her, and she's also part of the group called Community Witch. ​We listen to a track called "Wake Up," and that sound you heard of me cracking open an aluminum can is a sparkling coconut water with yuzu—which is a wonderful citrus fruit from Asia, spelled Y-U-Z-U. Anna just has quite an eclectic range of styles in the way that she sings, as well as a vocal range that's pretty excellent. I skip the YouTube ads so I don't subject anybody to those, and we get right back on with Grass Maiden. There's a lot of soul in this. It's the kind of stuff I get lofty sitting around for hours listening to. So elegant, simple, right, just piano and voice on the track "Be There." ​The reason why I am frequently speaking over the songs is because I want you to go and listen to them for yourselves. I'm not an internet radio DJ; with podcasts like this, we just want to give you a sample and share the love of Grass Maiden. Plus, my voice is pretty awesome too. ​This session wraps up with a track called "Twirling," and I'm a little disappointed that it's already done because it's definitely much shorter than the first installment. But for the third installment, I'm gonna hunt down some of the new music Anna said she just released. I am Dr. Hakeem Ali-Bocas Alexander, PhD, and this is going on the 613 Records, REd COiN Studios, MC Narcissist podcast. ​Takeaway Bullets ● ​Exploring part two of a trilogy featuring Virginia Beach artist Anna and her project Grass Maiden. ● ​A listening session focused on the soulful four-track release Wake Up Live. ● ​Highlighting the eclectic vocal range across the release and a correction on the opening track's title, "Khrizzia’s Dreamy Bells." ● ​The podcast format intentionally speaks over tracks to give listeners a sample and encourage them to stream full songs. ● ​Anticipation for hunting down and reviewing brand new releases from Grass Maiden and Community Witch. ​Conversational FAQs Q: Where can I find the new music from Grass Maiden and Community Witch? A: I recommend checking around on the official Instagram pages for Grass Maiden and Community Witch to get the latest information and releases directly from Anna. ​Q: Why do you talk over the music tracks during the podcast? A: I speak over the songs because I want you to go and listen to them for yourselves. The goal is just to give you a sample and share the love, not to be a radio DJ. ​Call to Action Go check out the Instagram pages for Grass Maiden and Community Witch, and head over to poems.HypnoAthletics.com or Acrimonium.com for all things music-related!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/m-c-narcissist--1322546/support.📚 Explore the author’s exclusive bookstore.

  • Grass Maiden & The Dopeness of Raw Live Music
    2026/09/03
    I just heard the live tracks from Grass Maiden and it gave me chills—let's talk about the magic of raw music and why Kintsugi is the perfect vibe for low-fi recording.

    I was doing my low-fi podcasting from the car, just driving and listening to this live set from Grass Maiden from a couple of years ago, and man, I'm digging it.

    Anna's vocals are enchanting, giving me chills and straight-up reminding me of Jada Pinkett Smith fronting Wicked Wisdom.

    There is something so atmospheric and raw about this live recording.

    It brings to mind Kintsugi—that Japanese art where they take a broken bowl and put it back together with gold.

    When you leave the cracks, the background hum, and the raw imperfections in a track, you're building a completely new, beautiful piece of art. That's the gold.

    I'm putting this out through REd COiN Studios and my MC Narcissist channel, and crossing it over to MonarchCityBuzz.com because that’s what it's all about: building a real, organic community in the Hampton Roads area.

    I got inspired to do this after seeing some whack, predatory outreach practices from other marketing agencies. I decided I wanted to highlight real, dope local artists without the BS.

    We're using my AI stack, search engine optimization, and genuine connections to put us both on the map.

    Takeaway Bullet Points

    ● ​Raw, live audio has an enchanting, atmospheric vibe you just can't fake in a sterile studio.
    ● ​The Japanese art of Kintsugi perfectly explains why the imperfections in low-fi recording are actually the gold that makes the track beautiful.
    ● Some of ​Anna's vocal arrangements give off heavy Wicked Wisdom energy, proving the power of a great frontwoman.
    ● ​Cross-promoting on MonarchCityBuzz.com helps elevate local Norfolk and Virginia Beach artists organically.
    ● ​Ethical marketing means skipping the predatory tactics and actually supporting independent creators like Grass Maiden and Community Witch.

    ​Conversational FAQs

    Q: Why do you prefer unpolished, low-fi podcasting and music?
    A: Because it's raw. It's exactly like Kintsugi. The background noise, the live imperfections, the unpolished edges—that's the gold that holds the whole track together and makes it authentic.

    ​Q: What's the main goal with Monarch City Buzz?
    A: I built it to be Norfolk's ultimate community guide. After seeing how shady some marketing agencies operate, I wanted to do real, ethical outreach and put the spotlight strictly on dope local creators.

    ​Call to Action

    Go check out the raw sounds of Grass Maiden and Community Witch on Instagram, and catch more local Hampton Roads artists over at MonarchCityBuzz.com.
