Many recognize Condola Rashad from her Tony-nominated performances in Saint Joan, A Doll’s House, Part 2, The Trip to Bountiful, and Stick Fly or as Kate Stacker on Showtime’s Billions, but few know her music alter ego Dola. However, that’s all about to change. On July 22, the 33-year-old dropped her debut EP, Space Daughter, featuring five tracks titled “Blue,” “Give Up the Gold,” “Running in Place,” “What I Said,” and “Too Fire.” Along with the songs, Rashad released accompanying music videos for each track, and they’re all so visually stunning. Personally, my favorite is “Blue.”
Ahead of the album’s release, POPSUGAR chatted with Rashad about everything from how Space Daughter came into fruition to what she hopes fans take away from the EP. She also explained how her collaboration with Samsung has helped her stay inspired and connected during the pandemic. “This collaboration with Samsung actually came at a really great time, because with the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip, I actually have been able to capture, in a really awesome way, the energy of my space for the past couple of months through photos and videos,” she said. Rashad even gave us a glimpse at what that looks like with images taken on her Galaxy Z Flip, which you can check out in her interview ahead.
