She recently headlined for Chicago band North by North at The Valley and opened for T.I. and the Haha Mafia at Nate Jackson’s Super Funny Comedy Club. Her “Douche Bag” was recently chosen for the Autumn 2024 anthology of poetry of, about, or inspired by Tacoma, entitled “Voices of Tacoma: A Gathering of Poets”.  Sam loves The Beatles and Gertrude Stein and can rap the entire periodic table of elements in under 40 seconds.
