2AM Ricky teams up with GODZENA for “Move,“ a hip-hop/R&B blend that’s a bold step for Black trans artists toward recognition in the music industry. Produced by Mike Gamas, with vocal production by Tami LaTrell (Grammy-nominated), the song has made a big cultural splash with its sound and message.
“Move“ is part of a larger conversation about representation, leveraging its visibility to help create more space for Black trans artists. It adds an important dimension to the release, while keeping the music itself at the heart of the project. The music video continues the song’s cultural journey with a cinematic visual story inspired by the iconic 90s Black film Crooklyn. The video celebrates culture, resilience, and joy, with themes of self-discovery and empowerment.
In more ways than one, this release centers on movement, with the track and its visual presentation stitched together. “Move“ is musically rooted in hip-hop and R&B, but it also explores themes of visibility, resilience, culture, and self-discovery. With its artistic and cultural themes, the release is brought to the forefront by 2AM Ricky, GODZENA, and the production team, including Mike Gamas and Tami LaTrell.
