WHO Is BSANE?
BlackSunshine
is a conglomerate of hip hop and
spokenword fused with R&B and Soul. It is the vision
of Black Atticus and RheaSunshine to take a positive message to
the world through the art of spokenword and hip hop.
Poets such as RheaSunshine, BlackAtticus, Courageous, Sincere,
Runaway Poet, Calvin J, DAWG, Psalm, and Nuisance are currently performing
with BlackSunshine throughout the country.
With voices, beats, few props and most importantly the
Word, the group presents the world through different eyes
and talks about such subjects as relationships, war,
poverty, music, spirituality, art, personal growth, stereotypes,
and history. It is one of the most powerful types of
edutainment available in the city of Knoxville.
BlackSunshine
also has a facet dedicated to youth ages 13 – 24. The Eclipse meets weekly to
learn more about poetry and grow in the WORD. For more information click on the Eclipse link at
the top of the page.
THE PURPOSE
You cannot do
anything with any type of passion if you don't know why you are doing it.
The poets and performers of BlackSunshine, RheaSunshine, and
the Shining perform to touch the lives of the people that hear what we
have to say. We have all been given the gift of writing words that God
places on our hearts
through metaphors and scenarios we are able to present the world the
way it is and possibly cause change in the lives of people that hear
us. Our ultimate goal is to bring about change in the world that we
live in through the power of the WORD. For in the beginning was the
WORD and it is all that will remain
when the world is gone.
