Blackalicious Rocks!


I went to see Blackalicious at the 9:30 club in DC the other night.  One of the MC's of Blackalicious, Gift of Gab, was particularly stable and calm.  All of the Blackalicious members brought upbeat energy to the concert, but Gift of Gab was the anchor. He did not do anything flashy; he is the only performer i've ever seen to stand in one spot during an entire show and barely move, yet everyone in the audience kept their eyes glued on him.  This is because he appeared to be in a state of meditation where nothing could penetrate his concentration and serenity, and it was entrancing.  Watching his flow, it became obvious that he approached his work with a deep sense of calm and the intention of creating a positive experience for everyone. The concert was energizing and inspiring- I couldn't help but smile the whole time.  It showed that it's possible to get people pumped up and energized, yet maintain peace and positivity at the same time.

Keep it Coming

Blackalicious was all about sharing their talent with others, having fun and empowering people to connect to their own source of inspiration. We can find these kinds of uplifting experiences everywhere, for example: by watching movies that aim to educate and inspire,  seeing a special art exhibition, taking pictures of nature, or surfing Zaadz.;-)   My goal is to continue to bring more of these types of experiences into my life.

Once you make a choice like that you begin to find those experiences everywhere.  It's the awareness to do so that's so important, awareness you obviously have.  Thanks for sharing your awareness.  Namaste, YO!
