Ultra-soothing songstress Anna Wise has developed a reputation as a consummate collaborator. She’s worked with all your faves (think: Kendrick Lamar, Sonnymoon, Nick Hakim). And today, she’s teaming up with Novena and Anthony for a cosmically creative conversation and guest DJ set. Find out about her favorite music to drive to, the musical quirk her child shares with Novena’s brother, and the classical bop that inspired a spontaneous duet with Anthony.

Plus, fresh heat from Everything But The Girl, Jayda G, Madison McFerrin and so much more. Do it.
