CLASSIC~An Understatement

I promise not to hold your attention too long. I just really had to give the biggest round of applause to all the performers at the Cleveland Classic 3! Status messages on twitter and facebook only last for so long.

But for someone who loves hip-hop... I mean REALLY loves hip-hop I couldn't have asked to be entertained any better. You all were amazing, F_UP, Block Cartel, Caine, Proph The Problem Izzrael, Bravo... all of you. It was with certainty that you love your craft which made your performances so much easier to appreciate.

Although as one of the Promo Divas for the evening I spent much of time interacting with the crowd, for me, that turned out to be the best place in the house. Because once you all took the stage, I was right there, front and center. The vibe around me was intoxicating. Fans of REAL hip-hop rockin out to the incredible band but paying attention to your words...actually listening. That lets you know that you were not in the presence of rappers but you were witnessing true lyricists.

I am humbled by your ambition, your integrity to stick to the sanctity of hip-hip (and not the commercialism of it), and your own humility that allowed you take in all the support being offered you with dignity and grace. You came to perform and that was evident. If someone couldn't see that then they need to get to their nearest optometrist A.S.A.P.

Ms Cream Antoinette put her heart into providing you with hot forum in which to showcase your talents and you did not disappoint. Your guests performances, crowd interaction, and "go hard or go home" attitude allowed this hip-hop junkie to gladly get high off your supply....

Thank you.
