Want Some Clear And Unbiased Facts About Young ENTERTAINERS NOW?

Want Some Clear And Unbiased Facts About Young ENTERTAINERS NOW? This week’s Chosen Visionary in HOT-Seat Ninety-One (91) has entertaining and performance arts in his blood, and that’s in the literal sense.

Today’s young entertainers know about their contracts, money earned, and from where it comes? Far too often, our best young entertainers are robbed of millions of dollars. What hurts the most is the robbers would never allow their children to listen to the music they exploit all day long 24/7 in search of young entertainers.

What Young Entertainers Have in Common?

It is a museum (for visual arts). At different times of the day, you will find different levels of skill, or certain sections of space will be available at certain times. And the music industry (singer-songwriters) to collide in space for freedom of expression. That’s the environment this Chosen Visionary grew up, and what’s prepared him for the journey towards super-stardom! Your domain still is only halfway there. With it, you need opportunity, and it needs to be age-appropriate depending on your age.

The Pen of a Young King who is also a Young Entrepreneur

Wanna know how to tell if someone is a writer (any kind)? It’s because they will always find ways to give credit to the pen. Could there be power in words, but only if they are written and heard aloud? Who am I but a nobody trying to tell everybody about somebody who loves anybody!

Consider this: The word “pen” appears in the HOLY Bible 18 times. I say if it comes up at all, it’s worth exploration – Eighteen times, oh yes, there’s something to the pen. During his pre-session for the Urban-Academics Roundtable, Mali paid homage to the pen (ink pen). I knew he was born to write (everything) as a writer myself. We know it’s the “ready writer” one who needs no prompting. For me, I’ve featured in the top 90th % on Grammarly every week consistently for over a year.

There’s no time to dive into each here in this post, so I’ve linked the site where I found the information in the first place so you can check it out for yourself at your leisure: 18 Scriptures About the Pen! Mali MGMT is an old soul, which makes perfect sense why he is wise beyond his years, and ready for the world. The Chosen know who they are because it’s familiar to the called folks. The chosen doesn’t answer a call – It is already easy, taking no thought (giftings).

“Ever since I was a kid the possibilities of expressing myself through creativity seemed endless. When I wasn’t sleeping, doing homework or playing outside I was drawing, because art was always there for me on the best days and the worst days.”

A Beautifully Refreshing Perspective On ARTS EDUCATION AND THE THEATRE

The arts in education and theater are not new to the world; each of these phenomenons is expressive models that most people desire. The ability to express oneself does come in many forms. Still, the theatre is not recorded, nor is it edited, and therefore needs skilled performers and talent for ticketed guests to experience something they’ll remember and tell others about.

When we look at black and brown folks in the theatre, it’s not widely a choice for performing artists; Black folks tend to go towards film/movies or rap/sing. This week at the Urban Academics Roundtable, Chosen Visionary Number Fifty-One (51) will share the climate in the theatre when he was a student and graduate from Howard University Drama Department, and whether that distinguished degree made the playing field easy or not?

What does the climate look like today in the theatre for black folks, and what can we do to ensure the next generation of talented young people find their way to the most fruitful opportunities?

The term “Black Theatre” combines plays and musicals directed, performed, produced, or written by African-Americans (Blacks) over the past 200 years.

The Harlem Renaissance of the late ’20s and ’30s was mostly responsible for causing the blow-up that paved the way for hidden skilled performers and talented acts. There is so much that came out of this era that remains, but what was once there that is no more? Find out at the Urban Academics Roundtable, Thursday at 9:30 pm (EDT).
