about

an experiment in home recording between omari kamau, myself and stephen orsak. also, there is an obvious ode to latyrx on the third verse. this song was a huge crowd favorite during the word association days, and it was execution of ideas like this that helped omari and i grow our creative sides.

not many people know this, but the genesis of the third verse idea was for each of us to look up 10 words in the dictionary, pool our 20 words, and then each write a 16 bar verse incorporating those 20 words. only later did we decide to perform the verses in unison... listen for some interesting echoes and callbacks, as well as cross references.

here's a live performance from Sundance Records, after having given poetry workshops to high schoolers all day :
