This song is a direct message to the audience, I urge them to respond to me & acknowledge my presence. As the lyrics say, 'The less you do, the more it makes me crazy... You're turning me cruel 'cause I'm just wanting you to react.' Without their reaction, I spiral.

Outfit and choreography curated by me.

In this performance piece, set to the powerful words of Malcolm X and the electrifying beats of Charity Kase's anthem, I call out Trent University’s attempt at “celebrating diversity” during Black History Month in 2023. My performance isn't merely entertainment; it's a call to action, a reminder of the importance of empathy, understanding, and celebrating cultural richness.
