Jambalaya Soul Slam hosted our "We love Hip Hop" slam October 16 at the Hayti Heritage Center. Perhaps we should have called it the "New voices" slam, of the ten poets who slammed 5 of them were new to Jambalaya and they all impressed us with their words & energy! We started out with an awesome feature from Eboni, Sarafine & Jackie three young ladies out of Jacksonville, FL who graced us with their talent. DJ Cotton kept us entertained between rounds with classic old shcool hip hop while Dasan & the audience played games. Congratulations to Nikki McCray for winning the "name that rhyme" game and winning tickets to the Old School concert in Chapel Hill.
