Charity has a preacher for a father and a praying mother.
Still nervous that her profanity might make it back to her dad, there’s a little shyness behind her strong demeanor. Her parents are now divorced and she makes it clear on her debut album that she too is separating from many of the ideas she grew up with - yet the church organ on Millennials reveals an obvious reverence of Gospel music.
Charity and her three sisters were all homeschooled and bear “c-h-a” as the first letters of their names.
They frequently end up back on the Westside of Detroit in their mother’s home listening to the music of their childhood- Stevie Wonder, Frankie Beverly and Maze, and D’Angelo. They start their Sunday sessions with music from Kirk Franklin, The Winans and J.Moss though. Charity describes Black culture as a sanctuary; stating simply that “God is just all up in there.”
