Just thought I’d expose the world on a talented group of beautiful young women.I actually got hip to them at a Letoya Luckett concert at my school a couple of months ago.

I am so glad this group is out here doing their thing and repping out here for us ladies!!

Spoken-Word Flava: Shanelle Gabriel

They say Poetry is nearer to vital truth than history…

This is one of my favorite talented poetic sistas. Mrs. Shanelle gabriel is a soulful singer, a gifted writer, actress, and advocate for Lupus awareness. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, she has displayed her skills at colleges and venues both nationally and internationally. Frequently compared to Lauryn Hill and the super duo Floetry wrapped-in-one, Shanelle’s tenacity has allowed her to become a shining star in any path she treads.(http://www.shanellegabriel.com/bio/)
