Layla Love as Hurricane Season’s Guest Blogger
Hurricane Season the Hidden Messages in Water is imperfectly-perfect:
painful, powerful, visionary. It is one of the most compelling pieces of art
I have ever seen.
There is a kind of bliss that comes from ignorance & another that comes from having seen & felt with eye’s & heart wide open and finding the bliss within the layers.
The [...]
Just trying to deal with these feelings…
We have 5 more days until we roll back in to Brooklyn. As the HURRICANE SEASON crew gets closer, we begin to bear witness to all sorts of self-sabotaging, elitist, depressing behaviors within ourselves and each other. Three and a half months is a long time to travel with people you haven’t said [...]
Because when I am with them…
I told Alixa and Naima (because I believe it) that I feel closer to God when I am with them. What it is, is I feel more myself, more creative, when I’m with them. It is a beautiful realization to have while on tour – to see the God in me.
My college friend told me [...]
The beginning
Thank you Chad for taking pictures on August 28th, the day we left NYC… For all of you who missed the goodbye “ceremony”.
I’m not Homeless, I’m Just Roughing it!
Yeah… That was Huey’s hair-brained description of my outfits these days: “I’m not Homeless, I’m Just Roughing it!” Of course, she wanted to turn it into a t-shirt slogan.. .
Seriously, I walk off the bus some days, look down at my clothes and think, “Goodness, if anyone saw me like this at home, [...]
The Tipping Pointizzle
Okay. So I’m in Chicago. Sitting at my aunt’s house (whom I have only met once before this at my high school reunion 11 years ago). I am taking a break from my HURRICANE SEASON homies. I have two blogs between this one and the last one that covers what has been happening on the [...]
A GROWN MAN CRYING IN PUBLIC
FIRST OFF: Love, love, love to: rolando, jennifer, sparlha, tyrone, ayinde, jamel, atiba, cj, jullien, julia, caitlin, and kelli for reaching out!
Cincinnati continued…
HURRICANE SEASON is a pretty hi-tech multi-media piece. It has visual collages, and audio testimonials interspersed with Climbing PoeTree’s poems, full-bodied Cat’s Cradle, and stick dancing. It’s all perfectly timed. And when/if there are any technical difficulties, it is extremely difficult to hold up [...]
I (HEART) MY HATERS
Naima (aka Mama Lou) and Alixa (aka Tetris) are extraordinary women.
Background:
I met Naima and Alixa at the African Arts Festival after having seen them briefly on a BET commercial. Kahlil Almustafa introduced me and he apparently had MAD respect for them. Then I would see them at various events throughout the city. [...]
Where is Sugarcube, now?!
So what exactly is Sallome doing on this tour?…
The website says, and I quote: “Sallome will be journeying on Hurricane Season tour watering dreams as the facilitator for the post-show “solution-ciphers”! Powerful, compassionate, brilliant, Sallome is a village-minded sister from the Brooklyn Renaissance dedicated to helping people realize their highest potential.”
So basically, after Naima & [...]
A WOMAN COVERED IN GREASE – IT’S SO HOT!
We are on our way to Pittsburgh… no wait! We are swerving our way to Pittsburgh, and it is evident that unless we figure out Sugarcube’s problem, we’re going to kill ourselves and others on the highway. So we stop at Blue Mountain Travel Lodge – complete with a Roy Rodgers and an ice cream [...]
