While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
  • India Arie is an African American singer and songwriter.
  • The media outlet BBC Music has described her music as a “blend of hip hop, soul and folk [that is] as subtle as it [is] inspired.”
  • Her acclaimed albums feature many talented musicians.
