Sorry I’m Late! Here’s the monthly update!

 

Droopy the BrokeBaller and Dwayne B. the Crochet Kingpin present the legendary “Spit Dat” weekly open mic event! Thursday nights, 8:30pm to 11:30pm at the Emergence Community Arts Collective (733 Euclid Street NW, Washington, DC, near Banneker High School and Howard University School of Business). Only $1 cover charge!* Spit Dat is one of the longest running open mics in Washington, D.C. It’s a great atmosphere for amateur poets as well as more experienced poets. Many of today’s most well known poets began by performing at the Spit Dat open mic series. The open mic recently won a NUSPA (National Undergroud Spoken Word Award) for venue of the year.

This Weeks Feature is None Other Than: Lucky LowKey!!!

This brother is a dynamic performer with feisty first and a fierce heart! If you ask him…. he might just do some erotica for us at Spit Dat, you never know. One thing for sure, he is always honest and heartfelt. That is something i certainly appreciate in an artist and I know you will too!
