Carefully creating and meticulously calibrating a series of guided meditations meant to heal, uplift, and purify, in a blaze of creative roles and gifts as a spiritual healer, musician and mental health ambassador is LaDonna N. Smith- a healer born and raised in Brownsville, Brooklyn. LaDonna is a multi-faceted songwriter, award-winning author, trauma-informed therapeutic art coach and above all a spiritual counselor and healer! Accepting the grand call to raise the standard by which she lives out the remainder of her life- she has taken it upon herself to be there for the victims of mental health in her capacity as a therapeutic coach and artist.
Her style of integrating story-driven poetic and smoothly flowing lyricism in some authentic, captivating and fascinating R&B/Hip-hop beats is intriguing, enchanting and intensely affecting! And this is exactly what you sign up for in her 5-track EP dubbed “The Spiritual Gangsta (Trapsoul)” which is a full-house mental health resource with its guided meditations, affirmations, music, and mantras designed to help a listener keep making their walk to healing, acceptance, self-care, and forgiveness and also live their luminous nature by magnifying their sovereign selves!
“Healing Trauma (Affirmations)” speaks to the deeply hurting traumatic soul out there and to demonstrate the degree of decency, the piano oscillations at the intro start the healing process. The message is deep and the rap wizardry is a nice touch to get the message home; no matter how bad it gets, we must dedicate all the time to healing, life is just too short not to treat yourself as amazingly as possible.
Behind the infectious hip-hop beats, you are reminded that this is your time, and now is your day; to make your leap and get a grip on your whole life by focusing on your healing and making yourself whole again! Even if it feels like the universe is against us. This is truly what makes us human beings. Even if it seems the light will never transcend the darkness, keep making that step towards a better you- model what’s highest even for other victims of trauma, exemplify grace for the majority of us and you included. Kick the victim mentality out the door stop surviving and start living!
As emotional as it gets, “Self Care” is a smooth, laid-back melodically moving tune that imposes itself to the heart and soul endearingly. This very magical tune brings sublimity in essence and tonality and this very moment deserves and demands your commitment to choosing you over others. Treat yourself to an oasis of tranquility in your own life; live like a hero. Be the main character of your own life and you will notice that vast increases in your ability to build intimacy with your sovereign self so embrace the genius, glory, and compassion that are you. When you choose you; everything else around you will ultimately be lifted correspondingly!
“Letting Go” is a blissful and glamorous cocktail that balances the weight of R&B and Hip-hop and the mellifluous female enchanting vocals backed by the poetic touching piece by LaDonna capture a listener’s soul and takes them home to the message. We have to let go and let God; everything about our lives is unfolding as it should. On our end, we will realize that very little of what happened to us was an accident. Everything was for growth. And it was all for our own good! We have to cultivate our minds, purify our hearts, optimize our health and elevate our souls to live a fulfilling life.
“Forgiveness” in its abundant melodicism reminds us that we have to release the shackles of blame, chains of hate, and the prison bars of revenge that keep us in slavery to the dark forces of our lowest nature.
“Gratitude” reminds us to be thankful for every little thing we have and as we take those daily voyages into awe and regular adventures into wonder, we have to show gratitude to others and be thankful to our creator for every fine detail happening in our lives!
