Do you remember those days when you kicked it at your friends house ,kicked your shoes off, talked and enjoyed each other’s company? That is exactly how I would describe Drgnflyy’s event Loft ~Sound. A major component of hosting an event is setting the proper atmosphere and this was executed perfectly! I felt like I was walking into a friends house instead of a traditional poetry set. It kind of reminded me of a slumber party where everyone had their pallets and pillows laid out. I asked Drgnflyy what the inspiration for the event was he stated that he just wanted to host a set where people could feel free to share whatever they wanted even if it was a song that they sang in the shower. The features were Isaiah Jones, SouLah and Solo Dwin. I applaud him on his efforts because from my perception it seemed that everyone had fun with what they shared and everyone enjoyed it. There was poetry, music and people just telling you what was on their minds! Of course I cannot forget to mention Mocha Chocolate Productions who continues to host great events in her beautiful space. She is truly a connecter and supporter of artists in our great city. “Queen Quisine” Danielle Barnhart was in the house! They satisfy my taste buds every time! On last nights menu was a burrito bowl that could run Chipotle out of business as well as tacos, cookies and her scrumptious banana pudding! I love the poetry community because they continue to put on affordable and enjoyable events that are an alternative to the club scene.
