Hoʻopili pinepine kāna mau mele noʻonoʻo i nā kumumanaʻo o ke aloha, ʻike iā ia iho, a me ka hoʻoikaika ʻana, e hoʻopili ana i kāna mele.
Ke ulu nei ʻo Kali i loko o kahi ʻohana mele mele, ua hoʻomohala ʻo Kali i ke aloha nui i nā mele mai ka wā ʻōpio. ʻO kona makuahine, he mele mele, a ʻo kona makuakāne, he mea hoʻokani pila akamai, ua paipai iā ia e ʻimi i kona makemake i ka mele. ʻIke ʻia i nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole, ua hoʻoikaika ʻo Kali mai nā mea pena e like me Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, a me Amy Winehouse, ka mea i hoʻoikaika nui i kona kani a me kona ʻano.
