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.
