Welcome to I Have a Nightmare – The Soundtrack of My Life

This isn’t just a memoir—it’s an experience. I Have a Nightmare dives deep into the raw, unfiltered moments that shaped my life as a Black woman in America, and each chapter carries its own rhythm that beats between pain and hope.

With every turn of the page, there’s a song waiting to be heard—because sometimes, words alone can’t carry the weight of a story. This soundtrack is the pulse beneath the narrative, a companion to my journey through trauma, resilience, and healing.

Feel the music.
Watch the moments unfold.
Read between the lyrics.

Immerse yourself in the sounds that echo my experiences. This is more than a biography—it’s a living, breathing testament to the power of storytelling through music.

Press play, and listen to the heartbeat of Darlene Celeste in “I Have a Nightmare.”
