Lauren Hill “Black Rage”

With her long absence from songwriting, you may have forgotten what a powerful talent Lauren Hill can be. With our country mired in the crisis in Ferguson, Hill released a “sketch” of the song “Black Rage,” her present-day take on “My Favorite Things.” It is somber but powerful, in a way she does better than almost anyone else.
