About this listen

In this episode, hosts Bort and Marcus tap in with Oakland’s own Aneesa Strings — a rapper, singer, songwriter, composer, and classically-trained instrumentalist breaking every rule and redefining what Bay Area artistry looks like.

Aneesa shares her journey from Deep East Oakland to earning a Master’s in Jazz Studies, going viral for repping her city, headlining Yoshi’s, and blending jazz + hip-hop into a sound that feels both timeless and raw.
