Love is contractible. Lust is transmittable. Touch is contagious. Catch feelings, not HIV.
PrEP is a once-daily medication that can reduce your risk of getting HIV.
"Protect Your Magic"- "There’s nothing wrong with options. This Salt-N-Peppa flow reminds us that HIV still is present in the community. She is empowered and in control of her choices and her health with PrEP as her in case condom's breaking" back up plan." - Dr. Every Woman (aka Dr. Wendy McDonald)
The CATCH DESIRE VISUAL EP is written and performed by Chicago-based OBGYN and rapper, Dr. Every Woman (aka Wendy Mcdonald), as well as appearances by local influencers, such as recording artist and model Syren, advocate and actor Damon Williams, choreographer and stylist Darling Shear, and dancers Melody Flynn and Melissa Koops.
The CATCH DESIRE EP features three original songs written and recorded by Dr. Everywoman. Each song aims to uplift the narratives and experiences of sexually liberated black women while also promoting the value of PrEP through witty remakes of all-time-favorites Computer Love by Zapp, Shoop by Salt-N-Peppa and Anaconda by Nicki Minaj.
The visuals were produced by People Who Care, Inc. in collaboration with PrEP4Love and the Chicago Department of Public Health and directed by Elijah McKinnon, Ashley Battle and Demetrius Barry and filmed at Silent Funny. The project was funded by a grant from the Chicago Department of Public Health. Learn more about PrEP at www.prep4love.com.
