It's Friday, so you know we have to hit you with another THROWBACK EXCLUSiVE!!! Check out our chop it up with Khujo Goodie, of the Atlanta based group Goodie Mob. Khujo was kicking back celebrating Big Boi's day as e brought the world the BIG Ballet. Khujo has big things coming up and he wanted BRiSON to know first!!!
BRiSON gladly got the chance to attend the BIG Ballet which went down at the Fox Theater in Atlanta, but should be coming to HBO very soon. The event was awesome, and we were excited to get a chance to chop it up with Purple Ribbon's finest Janelle Monae. Check out our EXCLUSiVE THOWBACK and see what Janelle's mental was going into the BIG production, and what else she has coming up.
And peep one of BRiSON's favorite ladies, Janelle Monae doing her thang!!!
We definitely want to shout out all of Purple Ribbon for making this a BIG exeperience for everybody (on Sunday I had students & parents calling to apologize for NOT buying me a ticket and taking me with them)! Also BIG ups to Tamiko of Word-Ink for having us in the spot!
After being in Atlanta almost 9 years, I can honestly say I think I witnessed the sickest thing ever last night at the Fox Theater!!! "BIG" was a mixture of hard core hip hop infused with the best of soul that ballet could ever offer! I cannot wait to format the rest of the footage just to seal the deal for those people that are strattling the fence about getting to the show this weekend. I have two words for you JANELLE MONAE!!! This chick is amazing; she's so eclectic and full of energy; she will definitely be getting those broadway offers if the ballet receives the national credit that it should. Antwan "Big Boi" Patton couldn't help but appreciate all of the love that Atlanta showed last night from the red carpet full of Purple Ribbon's finest and Atlanta's elite to the fresh after party that was graced by celebs like Tichina Arnold. As if being a part of the diamond sellig duo Outkast isn't enough, Big Boi continues to be a ground breaking force in the city he loves to call home, and further prove why he truly deserves those $50,000 kicks he recieved last year. Definitely have to BIG up a long time friend/student of mine Dori, you danced your heart away, and I am very proud of you! Much appreciation to Tamiko of Word-Ink as well.
