S.W.A.G - Spoken Word Affecting Generations



       I hate performing, so I've had to learn to share. Spoken Word Affecting Generations, a monthly open mic held at Brooklyn's Simplicity Wine Bar CafĂ©, took place May 14th, and that is where I finally learned what I'm supposed to do.  Surrounded by a plethora of talented, passionate artists, I was able to both share, and receive beautiful lessons.  I know this is something you learn in pre-school, but I really learned about sharing at this open mic & I am eternally grateful.

        On Memorial Day, The Potion Collective will showcase an impressive line up at Brooklyn Fire Proof East, with myself as the featured artist. :) The holiday celebration features an all-day cookout beginning at 1:30pm. At 7:30, the mic opens up to whichever creative souls are called. ADMISSION IS FREE. At about 10pm, I've compiled a selection of my works to share with you all. I can't even begin to explain how excited I am, but if you have the time to attend, I'm sure to impress you. That, I guarantee.

ELLA Performs, "Mic On Fire" - 1.12.13



I performed this passed Saturday at the Paul Robeson Theatre. Getting comfortable on stage, slowly but surely. As usual, forgive the curses and pardon my mistakes. I tried to keep it going tho. & Apparently, the best part of my set is my intro... I like performing in person. I like when people like me so... to really feel me, you might have to catch a show. Forreal, tho.

Hope you enjoy the videos below as much as my #1 Fan, Miss Natalie Rose. Check out my love below. If you love me, you'll clap just like that when I'm not in the room. <3 

If ever you want to catch me, please visit my calendar for dope sh*t jwwwdcalendar.tumblr.com

Pray for me, y'all. I'm trying. Progress is a long process.



The first is my rendition of some dude G Money Dogg's joint call "Get Dis Moooonay" lol. I don't know him or where I found the song originally, but he sings my hook. 
Messed up a bit on this one but... I like how it ended.

"This a God-given verse, not mine."



The joint below (the singing part & instrumental) is Shania Twain's "No Particular Way." 
I just really like her & the song makes me happy... so I wanted to sing it. That's really the whole explanation. *shrugs*  lol




S/O to my family. They did all the recording, picturing taking & sh*t talking.
