/ Reggae Teach Me Everything. / Teach Me Everything Reggae. / Me Everything Reggae Teach. / Everything Reggae Teach Me. . This @outdehlife shirt has open messaging on lock. . Behold the equalizing power of the circle. . Imagine if all sentences could be read in a circle. Imagine no "start here," but instead an "enter where you wish" approach. Imagine if reading wasn't hierarchical, but was open access. Imagine if we accepted that any and every start is a meaningful start, just add your own pauses for emphasis. . Reposted from @outdehlife - Back to roots #outdeh #RTME - #chronixx #reggae

Truth is, Runkus took Reggae Poetry to school yesterday. He pulled back the curtain on his creative process, the inspiration behind the works, and hit us with multi-layered lyrical analysis that a first-second-third listen could only start to reveal. In a word, the man is deep. Unfortunately, that word "deep" is so cliché these days that it undervalues the compliment. So, I'll try again. Runkus, your songs elevate, entertain, and enliven the listener with enerG. This really is a God tinG. We thank you. . . @runkusinno is in the studio called life these days. 🙌 Which means there is so much more good vibes to come. . . Check my Twitter feed for some of the word-knowledge Runkus was dropping yesterday. . . Big thank you ❤ to the Reggae Poetry Team: @liv_dread (on PR), @sunnnmarie (🎥 cred), and #Lee (on Tech Sup) . . #music #poetry #lyrics #runkus #analyzeandfindtruth #confidence @deptlitsinenglish @iotosh @yardiemuzik @yungnfreshradio

Tag you favorite Jamaican writer🌐 novelist, poet, etc. (published or unpublished, known or unknown). . With the novel PATSY in hand right now I tag @ndennisbenn ❤ Because she is bubbling with short fiction right now I tag @lawanliss ❤ With his layered poems on my mind daily I tag @dingopoetry ❤ Because music is the bridge I tag @iamtanyastephens & @stephenmarley . . Happy to have found this post to repost @jamaicanwritersexchange 😉 . . #tag #tagyourself #iamacreative #jwe #Jamaican #Jamaicanwriters #jamaicanpoets #jamaicanartist #jamaicansunite - #regrann

🔊 for World Poetry Day (tomorrow), Runkus is coming through to help the UWI Reggae Poetry students feel the lyrical EnerG in his words. Join us in O1. . #gratitude for @runkusinno . . And check out "Crazy Over You" by @rasi_musique with @theroyalblu & #runkus too! I'm def love love loving the poetry on that track too. . @deptlitsinenglish #worldpoetryday #2019 #reggaepoetry

"Ignite the blood and set fire to the house that iniquity built." . These words are mine-own and they are the only words I can draw for as I continue to reflect upon the powerful performance QUILT gave tonight. Without a doubt, "ReAshore'd" will ignite your blood and make you want to set fire to the house that iniquity built, for we have dwelled within it for far too long. . QUILT outdid themselves tonight and "ReAshore'd" will burn in me for a good, long while. . Creative Director @_rayactor - Can we have a chat? . Photo of #Shango scene . #quilt #myart #ReAshored #reassured #reashored

A metaphor in every 📷. . A 🎶lyric in every post: "Tell dem watch it inna traffic [Jamaica] nuh slow down..." @originalkoffee "Throne". . A side view and a rear view of Hope Road's new @nuwarhol designed mural. . Some questions now. Jamaica: Where have we come from? Who are we now? Where are we going? Who represents us and who do we represent? . #jamaica #jamaican #Kingston #Pepsi #pepsijamaica #mural #muralsbuildcommunity #Artforsocialtransformation #nationbuilding #brandjamaica #knowthyself #inspirationisamust
