Sunday November 20th – last edition of the year

“Remember, remember/ the 20th of November…”For our last edition of 2011 JNM, STDSTRKJVTRS, Vieira, Gery Mendes, RMB and Brian Kemble will bring you the dopest, the flyest and the funkiest.Meet the poets 

JNM
JNM is a Grace Jones portrait as it would be painted by Basquiat if Sonia Sanchez whispered in his ear. Her dopeness is a verb!

 

STDSTRKJVTRS
Industrial Print and Urbanism, a mix of work that consists mainly of a translation of word into image, which is reflected in the use of different media and materials.

Vieira
Straight from the skybox of the Feyenoord stadium! The words of this Cape Verdean rap Langston Hughes have more than rhythm, they have a pulse.

Gery Mendes
This Renaissance Brother has fire to spare and he draws pictures as well as attention with every mic he checks.

RMB
His verbs flow like fresh squeezed funk running through rocks of realness.

Brian Kemble
This poetic storyteller blends Sranan faja (Surinamese fire) with his ever so cool Corner Consciousness.

The cornerstones

Shay
The host with the most/ your poetic voice over, above and beyond. Her intros are pocketsize poems, her energy is a festival of funk.
  

DJ Threesixty
Mr Bamba Nazar always makes sure to baptize his rhythmic revolutions and soulful statements with some good ol’ African bushfire.
