Jen Msumba Music
США
Добавлен 24 дек 2008
Meet Jen Msumba. Inspired by artists such as Kimya Dawson, National Parks Band and Ben Rector, Jen's mix of folk and acoustic indie pop elements are refreshingly raw and authentic, with lyrics that will take you into her unique world, and leave you better for it.
Msumba’s newest EP, Pretending Gets Me Through, chronicles her teen years struggling with obsessive compulsive disorder, depression and loneliness. The subjects may be heavy, but the songs are light- inspired pop punk bands of the day such as The Dead Milkmen and the Violent Femmes.
Jen won her way onto the stage of Fenway Park on August 24, 2023, as part of the Doug Flutie Jr. Foundation for Autism STARS of the Spectrum event. The foundation had searched nationwide for the coveted last spot in the lineup, and Jennifer shined her way to the finish line. Her biggest performance to date, she shared the stage with Kodi Lee (winner of America’s Got Talent) and Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men.

This Light- Jen Msumba
What if This Little Light Of Mine had a remix?
Lyrics:
This little light of mine
inside my heart
shining in a world
that wants to be dark
comes from the
God of creation
it was there from the start
every generation
it gets passed along
through the ages
it never dies
never goes out
despite the enemy lies
it won’t blow out
never hide it
it’s a gift from above
i’m here to spread the message
that He came to love
this little light of mine
i’m gonna let it shine
this little light of mine
i’m gonna let it shine
let it shine
from my heart to yours
i got joy deep down
in my soul
i can’t help but smile from the things He’s done
my life wasn’t easy
but the battle’s been won
i hold on to the truth
cause it
never changes
i know i’m...

Jen Msumba- Best Day I've Had In A While (live at Borelli's in Chicago)
Просмотров 1882 месяца назад
I performed this original song for the What Up Pitches sync conference after party/open mic. It was at Borelli's Restaurant in Chicago, Illinois. Lyrics: I’ve been pretty down Go to school and then come home I think about my imperfections And the fact I don’t feel whole Not many people understand At least I think they won’t That I’m flipped inside out And what you see is what I don’t but Today ...

Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. I wrote this song with my friends from @BaysideCommunityChurch We took this video at the end of the writing session and it has always felt special to me. It's a declaration!

Someone Like You- Adele (cover)

I was visiting my friends at the Music Compound with my other friend Cierra today and when I saw the grand piano pulled out I knew we had to do an Adele cover. Cierra is a huge fan, and such an incredible vocalist! I figured it out on piano real quick and this was our first take. Definitely an amazing musical day 🤩 #autismtalent #autistictalent #adele

Jen Msumba- Paper Dolls (Live) NPR Tiny Desk Contest 2024
Просмотров 5636 месяцев назад
I wrote this Paper Dolls about friendship. About relationships that are different and not quite defined. Friendships you want to hold onto forever, like paper dolls holding hands, that is how they exist. If one of them gets cut off, they crinkle up. As someone on the autism spectrum, this topic really hits home with me. Lyrics below. I want to be paper I want to be glue I want to be comfortable...

Both Sides Now- Joni Mitchell (Cover inspired by the movie Coda)
Awesome!!
have you ever heard of songs of love? It's music like this for kids who need it and I think you have an amazing gift for carrying a sentence into a song
You are amazing
This is really great! Is there sheet music or a tutorial for this?
We saw Jen today at the Stars of the Spectrum in Quincy, MA and she is INCREDIBLE!! Thank you for entertaining us and being so amazing! 🤩
Thank you so much This is really beautiful ❤
During the time of which I speak It was hard to turn the other cheek To the blows of insecurity. Feeding the cancer of my intellect The blood of love soon neglected Lay dying in the strength of its impurity Meanwhile our friends we thought were so together They've all gone and left each other In search for fairer weather We sit here in our storm And drink a toast to the slim chance of love's recovery. Here I am in younger days star gazing Painting picture perfect maps Of how my life and love would be Not counting the unmarked paths of misdirection My compass: faith in love's perfection. I missed ten million miles of road I should have seen Meanwhile my friends we thought were so together Left each other one by one on the road to fairer weather. And we sit here in our storm And drink a toast to the slim chance of love's recovery. Rain soaked and voice chocked Like silent screaming in a dream I search for our absolute distinction Not consent to bow and bend To whims of culture that swoop like vultures They're eating us away, (eating us away). They're eating us away to our extinction O how I wish I were a trinity So if lost a part of me I'd still have two of the same to live But nobody gets a life time rehearsal As specks of dust, we're universal To let this love survive be the greatest gift we could give Tell all the friends who think they're so together That these are ghosts and mirages All these thoughts of fairer weather Though its stormy now I feel safe Within the arms of love's discovery.
