"Affirmation" by Paul David is a powerful declaration of solidarity, independence, and power. This song is an immediate response to the way things are right now, when people who want to cause fear and exclusion are constantly picking on vulnerable communities. The fundamental ideas are love, bravery, and self-discovery.
Beginning on an intimate note, the song's vulnerable and vulnerable introduction mirrors the anxiety and nervousness that many people feel when they discover their voice. The song grows sonically and emotionally as it progresses, becoming a powerful communal moment with the aid of layered vocals and spiritual influences from worship and praise traditions.
"Affirmation" stands out because of its inclusiveness. All marginalized voices, including trans, BIPOC, queer, and others, are affirmative in the song. The idea that empowerment multiplies when shared is enhanced by the richness and depth that collaborations bring.
"Affirmation" ultimately serves as a call to action to maintain speaking out in the face of fear's attempts to silence it. Essential, politically sympathetic, and incredibly human, Paul David's work is a must-read. Reminding us that self-love is revolutionary and not indulgent, it is a timely reminder.
