TO THE MAX...

I sat in the room of Red Clay Café (Downtown, Greenville, SC) noticing many poets preparing to speak…this young man dressed as if he was finally free to relax and sip a glass of wine or two while enjoying the poetry was a few feet away from me. I lost myself as time passed and the set began…

A few other poets had risen the occasion of speaking when called upon and the name Jason aka “Jay Fitty,” was summoned.

I found myself looking around to see who it was and behold the gentleman who I had noticed earlier sitting so calmly, was now rising to the stage. Interesting…
This was the night I encountered the spoken word artist by the name of Jason Franklin, otherwise known as “Max Lit” and “Jay Fitty.”


Originally from South Jamaica Queens, NY (New York), Mr. Franklin truly has his own unique style of MC'ing and written accomplishments. He is known for his militant stance as well as presentation. He has views, points and concepts that catch your ear as well as brains…
Hence the name “Max Lit,” which states the maximum of literacy! Educating the mind and keeping it strong and aware…


Get to know Mr. Franklin….truly a man of great talent!

SILVER....NOT GOLD....IS OF GREATER VALUE!

One of my many favorite spoken word artists wrote this wonderful piece….

Sinking Thoughts
by
Antonio B. Nelson/"Silver Tongue the Poet"

Sinking thoughts...a quiet breeze, blows softly across my brow as I glaze upon a wave of wild flowers being guided by an invisible wind
Picture this......
A title wave of Jasmine and Glover rushing its aroma throughout your nostrils to your brain as you close your eyes and take in a world full of wind so sweet that your tongue salivates the nectar of honey suckle
Picture this......
The warmth of the sun slowly undressing your body from head to toe as you turn gracefully arms wide spread to embrace that which can't touch but can only feel. A menasetua of the sun, and wind caressing your thighs and around your waist to your neck and softly down your spine.
Picture this……
A deep moan surrounds your shoulders, your back and your lips, your face, and your chest, your arms and your hips, kissing thighs and feet your eyes and nose. Making wet your hair your fingers and toes, with chill you feel like none before known only to a few, stunned as you realize nature has made love to you. Sinking thoughts……a cool breeze blows softly across your lips as you gaze upon a wave of wild flowers being guided by an invisible hand.

Meet Antonio B. Nelson...,


otherwise known as “Silver Tongue the Poet” or “STTP.” Originally from North Carolina and now residing in Spartanburg, South Carolina. He’s traveled, explored and somehow mastered words in a way that many attempt but never actually accomplish. He’s able to take possession of words in a way that appears that they originally belonged to him. His poetry is solid and it trickles thoughts of self, life and love in a balanced manner.

I’ve had the opportunity to connect with Mr. Nelson, and he is as much like his poetry, solid and powerful….with more than a subtle hint of humility.

"Where I Was Born....": Landrick "Prafessa" Pond (SC)

Recall the years behind the great lyrical genius of Timbaland or the countless hours Polo Da Don...real music fans and producers alike know that hard work pays off...and in the town of Anderson, SC (South Carolina), "Go Hard," is the motto!



Landrick "Prafessa" Pond, is widely known in his city and beyond. Having worked with various artists along the east-coast of the United States, he's truly talented and dedicated to his passion...MUSIC. He often goes by the name "Chops," or "Prafessa" and is versatile in many environments; making him easily workable with serious artist ready to get down to business.

Some of his most recent connections include that of the group N.B.H. (Natural Born Hustlers) and Slum Prophits (Geechie Black), and Royal-Tee among others.

I've spent a few hours or more with "Chops," and I have to say that my heart was reminded that it had a beat and with the right sounds it wanted to sync with his work on countless occasions. I recall a time I was in the studio with him and it brought a smile to my face seeing him get "lost," in his work and forgetting I was even there.

Not only does he have an ear for great sounds and music, his business mindset is extra NON-ordinary as well (why do people say extraordinary....you do realize you're saying extra...ORDINARY!).

You often hear people suggest that something is their passion, but only go in part time, but Mr. Pond lives, eats and breathes his work and is not backing down anytime soon...he literally goes hard....hint the industry staple and company/brand name "Go Hard Ent."

Get to know this young man and his work...he can teach you lessons beyond music but of course you'll have no choice but to get lost in this magical world of sounds.....and in the words of "Prafessa" himself, that's all I can say....listen for yourself...."Bet!"

SO WHO IS HE?

Belton, SC or "B-town," as some would call it, is the home town which birthed the two artists by the names Young Russell and Young Cease's careers. Their music is a unique combination focused on making it a mission of letting it known that they are here and are not going anywhere anytime soon and they are coming "hardER" into the music industry scene. For years they have dedicated time and countless hours to perfecting their passion for their music and life-style.

Most people are influenced by the "greats," of today but it's apparent that N.B.H's influences are the likes of Jay-z, Russell Simmons, and other great hip-hop musical and business minded moguls.

These two artist are in tune with themselves and definitely know what they are seeking and accomplishing it very quickly as well as with solidity. From their music to their fashion, there are no flaws and perfection is journey in which they continue yearly to travel. As a matter of fact, N.B.H has a fan base which stands solid and truly supports their music and lifestyle strides through-out the Carolinas and the surrounding regions.

The powerful producing skills of the one and only Landrick "Prafessa" Pond (Slum Profits) of Go Hard Entertainment, collaborated with N.B.H's vocal skills along-side other great talents as through-out the south-eastern region of the U.S. "Prafessa," has worked with an number of Carolina artist, one by the previously mentioned spotlight artist "Royal-Tee."
