O’s Notes: Nite Bjuti (Night Beauty) is an Afro Caribbean trio with a fresh message. Candice Hoyes sings poetic odes with accompaniment from bassist Mimi Jones and percussionist Val Jeanty, provoking thoughts of righteousness on “Illustrious Negro Dead”, “Stolen Voice”, “The Window”, and “Singing Bones”. These ladies leave nothing behind while addressing Black Women narratives.
