POETIC JUSTICE

In 1993, POETIC JUSTICE was the first movie I saw at the Drive-In. This is one of my favorite movies of all time, mainly because Janet Jackson was looking gorgeous with that whole hood chick, dookie braids, South Central appeal, and the great Tupac Shakur was starring. Joe Torry actually used to live right around the corner from me on Rowan. I relate to this movie on so many levels. I've been wanting to do this event for a year now, and it's finally time. The premise of POETIC JUSTICE is parallel to the movie script. Justice expressed herself through poetry, and Lucky put his energy in his music. We bring this element to life with a Live Poetry | Jam Session at 2847 Cherokee on the last Sunday of every month. Come and enjoy this experience if you are in St. Louis.

STATE OF THE ART

It's been a long time. I've been praying and asking for guidance. I have gone through so many storms and obstacles over the past few years. These trails and tribulations God has put me through were only meant to make me a better person and a stronger individual. There are great things in store for me, my family, and my friends. The growth process can be challenging at times, but faith, dedication and hard work will help you endure and overcome. I "Blacked Out" so hard to the point that I had to "Play It By Ear". I took some time away and came back "New & Improved". Soon I will address you all and convey the current "State Of The Art". -Black

ANTWON ♦ HELICOPTER

Don't know how I found this video, but it's probably the dopest thing I have seen in a while.

Whitney Houston I Have Nothing (Beautiful Fade Tribute) - Teresajenee x KevinK

This is a very soothing cover of I Have Nothing. TJ and Kevin made this song very intimate. Whitney is smiling, I know I am.

STALLEY- THE NIGHT

Lianne La Havas - Forget (TIP's New Jack Thing Rework)

I wish I could explain why this song sounds so good, but I can't.

So just listen.

Helen Marie - He Say She Say

My homegirl Helen Marie released this ill, soulful joint produced by Loose Screws. The lyrics are convicting and the sounds that blanket around her vocals are hypnotizing. The synths are flat out dope. I didn't see this collabo from Helen & Screws coming, but the execution is pretty flawless. Definitely gotta cop the Prologue project by Farfetched!

Give He Say She Say a listen

Tef Poe- K.N.G.M.F.B.

Kareem Jackson, better known as Tef Poe, is known to drop hits about different subjects, but on this particular record, he delivers a message that is underlining. A native of St. Louis, Pine Lawn district, Tef Poe delivered this smash record titled "KNGMFB" as he dabbles on topics ranging from politics, slavery & the current mind state of Hip Hop. Get familiar, as Tef Poe is creating a household name for himself and his Footklan movement.

THE YEAR

I wrote this poem a few years ago. It is basically a combination of things I've experienced and stories I've heard. The metaphors are based on how relationships are like seasons. As we enter 2012, its good to reflect, but remember its always better to look foward to the future. New Year, New Beginnings.
