LEVERT - ALL SEASONS ROPE A DOPE STYLE (1990)

[paisholotus]

Prologue

-January 4th, 1992-

Leilani's pov

As I was getting my hair and makeup done, I nervously tapped my foot against the chair. I sighed, looking over at my sisters, who were also getting their hair and makeup done.

 

I was looking down at my feet bouncing up and down, not paying attention to Monae trying to get my attention. "LANI!" I jerked my head toward her, who was staring at me with concern. "It'll be OK, girl. Stop worrying." She said, squeezing my hand in comfort.

 

Tonight will be our debut performance and interview on VideoSoul. To say the least, I'm nervous. They claimed we'd be interviewed with a group called Jodeci. We've never heard of them.

 

My sisters and I are an independent group from Baltimore, MD. We rap and sing, and I would definitely describe us as versatile since we try to incorporate a little bit of everything into our music. My family is originally from Jamaica. My mother is Jamaican, and my father is Haitian; we moved to America when I was just a baby, and I have two sisters and three brothers.

 

I've always had a passion for music. I grew up in church, and that's where my passion for music stemmed from. My family and I have come a long way, and the fact that my sisters and I are on VideoSoul is something I could have never anticipated.

 

Backstage, the crew fitted our ear pieces and handed us our microphones.

 

As the commercial break ended, we watched the monitor as one of the producers waited behind the curtain, waiting for our cue to enter the stage.

 

"Wassup, y'all, this is Donnie Simpson, and you're watching VideoSoul." Before we walked out there, I took a few deep breaths, and we said a quick prayer.

 

"We got a hot new group that's going to perform tonight, and I'm going to have the pleasure of interviewing them right alongside the bad boys of R&B, Jodeci."

 

As I watched the producers count down from ten, my heart was in my throat.

 

"Ladies and gentlemen, please put yo hands together for LMC!" When the producers signaled for us to enter the stage, I took a big breath and stepped across it.

 

We made our way over to the three seats in the center of the stage and sat down while taking in the cheering audience. I gave my sisters a quick look before nodding and turning to face the crowd. I started grinning widely as soon as the music started. "All right, let's blow these people away."

The rest of the designs from the NC server DoubleSouls design competition last month. Varying levels of quality/interest/novelty with these.

PlanetSoul and QuickSoul for Chase, VideoSoul and FlashSoul for Cursor, and BombSoul for CroquetWoman (who I still need to post).

Who y'all believe the homey @kingbobbybrown or @janetjackson ? Here is a clip of #BobbyBrown talking about album sales and #JanetJackson back in the day on #BET's #VideoSoul he exclaims his love for her back then so his feelings ain't new to those that are shocked all the way. I love me some Janet so I'm gonna be in denial regardless. If y'all haven't watched the @bobbybrownbet movie yet y'all need too. @woody_thegreat did an amazing job. So good that Janet scene had me mad... Lol #BobbyBrownStory https://www.instagram.com/p/BncdliuFNmr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1axdu4nzaayyj

This might be my finest TV moment EVER and it was my first. The backstory is that its June 1991 and we didnt have anything planned to celebrate #BlackMusicMonth and so I screamed LETS HAVE DIVA WEEK. We brought in Patti, Gladys, Chaka, Diana and I had to fight for Phyllis, but @lydiacole2 was quickly convinced WHILE watching Phyllis at Wolf Trap! Aretha wouldn't fly and Natalie was touring the world with #Unforgettable. #VideoSoul #DivaWeek #PhyllisHyman #BET (at BET - Black Entertainment Television)
