Madison McFerrin Used Her Wedding Budget to Fund Her Breakup Album | KQED
Briefly

Madison McFerrin, born in San Francisco to a notable musical family, carries a legacy that includes her Grammy-winning father Bobby and opera singer grandfather Robert. Growing up in Minneapolis and Philadelphia, she now resides in Los Angeles, engaging in collaborative projects. Following a compliment from Tyler, The Creator on social media, she collaborated with him on a track for his album Don't Tap the Glass. Additionally, Willow Smith connected with McFerrin, leading to a collaborative effort as co-producer on the song "I Don't."
The McFerrin name comes with a lot, and I think that that's incredible. It comes with a lot of Black American history, and I just want to carry that forward.
After Tyler, The Creator slid into her Instagram DMs to compliment her April Tiny Desk performance, McFerrin joined him in the booth for a lullaby-like interlude on his dance-heavy new album, Don't Tap the Glass.
Tyler recently praised McFerrin's vocal tone and jazz-inflected delivery, stating, 'Girl is crazy good,' during an interview.
Willow Smith reached out to McFerrin with words of affirmation, and after meeting in person, she came on as a co-producer for 'I Don't,' a punchy, piano-driven track.
