Enchanted R&B visionary and mystical guide Fairy Best Life (aka Sabrina) is redefining what it means to live magically. Her new music video for “Sonder,” released on Black Fae Day 2025, is an immersive visual spell that fuses fantasy, self-empowerment, and Black fairytale heritage into one dazzling cinematic experience.
Directed by Max Richardson-Reitman—her creative partner in both art and life—the video unfolds like a lucid dream. Fairy Best Life drifts through the realms of three real-world muses: Dorian’s Gilded Society, Artemisia LeFay, and Charlotte Lily Gaspard, each embodying an aspect of living magic through fashion, mysticism, and shadow theater. Together, they create a visual universe that’s equal parts whimsical and revolutionary, reclaiming fantasy as a space for self-realization rather than escapism.
At its heart, “Sonder” is about Living Lore—Fairy Best Life’s personal philosophy of turning everyday life into art. The video’s climactic moment channels her earliest inspiration, Whitney Houston’s Fairy Godmother in Cinderella, portrayed here as the ultimate divine feminine guide. “Whitney’s Fairy Godmother was my first glimpse of Black fairy magic,” Fairy Best Life explains. “She continues to inspire my magical evolution, and stepping into that energy for this video was truly empowering.”
Beyond her artistry, Sabrina’s impact extends through her work as founder and president of Folklore Arts Embodiment (F.A.E.), a creative ecosystem devoted to reclaiming myth and magic as tools for collective healing. Her influence within the Black Fae Day movement, and her performances at stages like Radio City Music Hall, Broadway, and The Apollo, have solidified her as a creative force merging art, spirituality, and social consciousness.
With a debut album now in development through the Plaid Dog Recording Rising Artist Talent Search—and a successful crowdfunding campaign already complete—Fairy Best Life isn’t just making music. She’s building a movement that invites everyone to awaken their own inner myth.
