“I’m proudly biracial. I’m very adamant about this. I don’t understand why people pick one. I’m Jamaican and Jewish. I have friends who are biracial and say they’re black Jews or Latino Jews. I’m like, ‘You’re mom’s white, knock it off.’ … I like [Shlomo] Carlebach and Biggie Smalls. I listen to both on a daily basis.”
