Shuffle Magazine - Shirlette Ammons

"[Shirlette Ammons'] name already rings out in North Carolina, but she wants more. The dominant traits of And Lovers Like—the new focus on everyday life, the cultural cross-section of collaborators and styles—stem from her desire not to be just a local artist, a local African-American artist, or a local African-American queer artist. She is all of these things, and they’re all reflected in the record, which is largely narrative and autobiographical."
