In today’s music scene, heavily influenced by the innovative ideas of Sun Ra—a self-taught pianist, composer, and thinker hailing from Birmingham, AL, or perhaps Saturn, in his cosmic imagination—Red Hot presents a fresh perspective on Ra’s concepts in a contemporary setting. Red Hot + Ra: Magic City is an intimate musical dialogue crafted by Grammy Award-winning musician Meshell Ndegeocello, delving into Sun Ra’s repertoire. These aren’t just covers; they’re entirely new compositions, drawing on Ra’s essence while infusing original music and sounds. Ndegeocello collaborates with a diverse array of talented musicians, including the legendary 99-year-old Marshall Allen of Ra’s Arkestra, hip-hop/jazz artist Pink Siifu, saxophonists Immanuel Wilkins and Darius Jones, vocalist-composer Justin Hicks, and many others.

Produced by Ndegeocello and Hector Castillo, Red Hot + Ra: Magic City blends various elements—voices, synths, horns—into a cohesive sonic landscape. The album reimagines familiar Ra motifs, adding fresh layers and personal interpretations, free from the clichés often associated with his mystique. Tracks like “#9 Venus The Living Myth” and “Yet Differently Not – Mars Hall (in)” offer novel arrangements, infused with feminine energy and Ndegeocello’s vision.

Original compositions by Justin Hicks, such as “Bedlam Blues” and “Reproductive Manatees – Sunny Said Up!,” incorporate Ra’s teachings, reflecting his perspective on navigating a chaotic world. Ndegeocello’s journey into Ra’s philosophy, sparked by John Szwed’s biography “Space Is The Place: The Lives And Times Of Sun Ra,” led her to reevaluate her approach to music, seeking a deeper connection and exploration of new dimensions.

For Ndegeocello, Red Hot + Ra: Magic City is about honoring Sun Ra’s legacy while embracing the present moment. It’s a call to self-reflection and empowerment in a tumultuous world. Ultimately, the album invites listeners to recognize the power of their own choices and the importance of shaping their lives according to their own aspirations.
