Mixtape: Sister Love

I never made a mixtape for my sister. We weren’t the type. But I’ve made them for people who felt like sisters—the ones you see without planning to, who show up when things go bad, who you’d wreck yourself for without thinking about it. You build the playlist slowly over months, songs that mean something specific about what they mean to you. By the time it’s done, it’s less a mixtape and more a confession. That’s the weird part: the music says what you never would out loud, and they get that.
