Short Set @Flow Lounge 05/14/25
Yours truly will rock a short set on 05/14/25 at the Flow Lounge event at Club Cali on Telegraph Ave, Berkeley.
Every Wednesday, NGO Hip Hop for the Future throws the Flow Lounge party. The event features a Rap writing contest, where MC’s write two 16’s on a specific topic, and the winner is selected by the people. (The topic and instrumentals are chosen beforehand.) If you’re interested in participating, please write HHFTF’s page above).
This is when I won several weeks ago!! The topic for that week was educational reform.. so I had more than enough material to go in..
Shout outs to Khafre Jay, DJ Lex, Do Dat, and Frank Stickems, for providing a space where MC’s can MC!!

Alright, here’s a banger that is a lot more political, jazzy, and mature than my usual material. I actually sound like an emcee in my forties.. it’s dedicated to the liberals and conservatives who continue to polarize our nation and demonize the other side. I am extremely proud with the way it turned out.
