Loopswaay Fest:: Be Dope Daily!

Happy Friday my friends!

Today I have a special post to share with you! 

Last Saturday I had the pleasure of attending Loopswaay Fest 2019. I walked in to it having no idea what to expect. I had heard rumblings about it, but not enough to give me any idea of what I was in for. 

What I experienced was a night of music, of amazing and inspiring artists, and unbelievable talent. 

Before I get into the evening, let me give you a quick insight to the Lootswaay brand. It is a clothing company, founded by Robert -Reasons- Brown, that is based in New York. The whole idea behind the clothing brand is to help inspire communities. That idea is encompassed in Brown's tag line 'Be Dope Daily.' It is simple and straight to the point. Be great and inspire others to be great. It was the theme of the evening as well, as Brown had gathered together a talented bunch of singers, rappers, designers and a speaker, all of whom were excited and eager to showcase their talents. 

As I mentioned earlier, I had no idea what to expect going into the event but the energy was palpable from the moment we entered the studio. We were greeted right away by a very excited Robert Brown. He ran up to us with hugs and high fives while grinning from ear to ear. He couldn't stay and chat long as he still had a lot to set up, but we were able to walk around and meet with other talents. Over the  next hour I met the creator and owner of the LOMK clothing and The Lifesstyle Brand, Seth Graham.

 I also was able to speak to two of the performers. Kiiba, who at the young age of 19, is already fully aware of his talents -and rightfully so! As was becoming more and more curious to see him perform the longer we spoke. Let's just say he did not disappoint! Easily one of my favorite performers of the night! 

Leo was another performer, an R & B singer. He mentioned growing up dancing and singing along to Michael Jackson, one of his all time favorites. He was also a joy to watch. You could feel the passion in his voice as he closed his eyes and belted out song after song. ​

We were able to see eight different performances over the course of the night. Never once did Robert's excitement waver, in fact it seemed to grow each time he got up to announce the next performer. It was so fun to see him excited for his friends and fellow artists. The excitement was infectious! 

When at the end of the night, Robert finally took the stage himself, it felt like the night had come full circle. He rapped his heart out to a room of cheers and camaraderie. 

It was a fantastic end to a fantastic night. I'm so honored I was able to be a part of it. Thank you to Robert for having me!  I cannot wait to see what is next for all of the performers, I just know big things lie ahead of them! 

Thank you for reading!
