Jahi's company- microphone mechanics
Microphone Mechanics is the home for Jahi's music, literary works, curation, and education design.

Our work is centered in the Black experience, with research, data, and innovation as pillars of our infrastructure. We pride ourselves on providing Black excellence to our clients and leaving lasting legacies in communities throughout the world.
