On September 7, 2022, my 47-year-old sister, Jenni Lynn McWilliams, died after a 2 1/2-year struggle with metastatic breast cancer. Born in New Orleans just like me, she ended up living in south-central Pennsylvania where much of my extended family lives. My dad and I arrived in Pennsylvania just hours after she took her last breaths in my mother's arms. I spent the next 7 days with my family, planning her funeral, staying in her home with her son and his father, and trying to feel whatever I felt.
This video was directed by Mitch Wells. In this video, I talk about my sister, Jenni, as well as the process behind what turned into this unplanned album after her death. The song playing throughout the video is "This is Old (2022)" off of Jenni.
