The Russell Lecture on Spiritual Life is the oldest endowed lectureship at Tufts and offers a spiritual perspective on this historical moment. This year we welcome Tisch College’s Artist\/Scholar-in-Residence Dee-1 to offer his gifts and insight to the Tufts community. This event is hosted by the University Chaplaincy with support from the Tisch College Solomont Speaker Series.

Dee-1 began rapping and performing publicly while in college at Louisiana State University. After graduating from LSU in 2008, he taught middle school math in Baton Rouge. After two years of teaching, he pivoted to focus exclusively on his music career. In 2010, Dee-1 was named Artist of the Year at the NOLA Underground Hip Hop Awards.\u00a0 In 2016, he released “Sallie Mae Back”, a hyper-energetic track celebrating the completion of his student loan payoffs. He used a part of his label signing advance to pay off the loans. The song received critical acclaim from CNN, ESPN, Forbes and Time magazine. The Washington Post called it the “anthem of a generation.” Dee-1 is the recipient of the 2020 NAACP \u201cPower of Influence Award,\u201d highlighting his activism and commitment to inspiring youth. In 2021, he became the first rapper in history to be appointed to a statewide position by a governor, John Bell Edwards of Louisiana, joining the Louisiana Council for the \u201cSuccess of Black Men and Boys.\u201d He was also nominated for an Emmy Award in 2021 for hosting \u201cThe Manhattan Project\u201d.\u00a0 His recent album, \u201cFinding Balance\u201d (2022) debuted at No. 4 in the world on the Apple Music\/iTunes Hip-Hop Charts. In 2023, he was appointed the Nasir Jones Hip-Hop Fellow at Harvard University.<\/p>\n

It is possible to attend this, and then walk over to Goddard Chapel for the Sangha’s meeting, and Buddhist Jeopardy….<\/strong><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
