On July 15th, Archie The Messenger & Lyrical The Lyricist may not have had a stage but they sure as heck had all of our attention. Something special had to be in the air to create an impromptu Morgan State all class reunion, causing alums to come from out of town JUST to be apart of the special night.

The sun beaming, sticky air, cars began to roll in and the venue filled up fast with an audience eager to get the right spot. 5 Seasons was sweltering, nonetheless, excited patrons selected seats in the unique cipher created to give everyone a great point of view of the production at hand.
The show began and the hotness of the room became exacerbated by the intensity of Archie and Lyrical. Perms got sweated out, clothes became soaked...the room stayed packed. Make shift fans moved back and forth, napkins fronted as handkerchiefs...the room stayed packed. An uncomfortable situation cant stop true art and the show went on as the two poets performed as if their life depended on it, with passion, skill and a tremendous show of endurance. The captivated audience was a true testimony to their ability to touch and transform those that hear their message.
