The Phenomenon of "Street Faërie": Cree Summer's Brilliant Rock Accomplishment #WomensHistoryMonth

Published on: 1st April, 2023

If you’ve been around Queue Points for a while, you know that we’ve often had discussions about Rock & Roll, Black folks and our place in the culture. We’ve also mentioned the importance of Cree Summer in those conversations. Check out The Rock & Roll Show to catch up.

It’s the last couple of days of #WomensHistoryMonth, and during this conversation we discuss 1999’s “Street Faërie,” Summer’s excellent debut, and to date, only album. We’ll reminisce a bit about the time of its release, and discuss some of the songs. Tune in and reminisce. What’s your favorite song from the album?
