Shows I'll be at and featuring in, appearing at in and Bridgeport, CT bound

Peace TCM Family.

On to the matters at hand got a few appearances coming up and your support would greatly be appreciated (including attendance). And please bring friends to help support the arts. This is partly how I'm making $$ to help pay my past due tuition bills as well. (no pressure. Jus saying) I'll give you the best of me on stage with a mic. If you give me the best of you with attendance and interaction. Deal...? *puts out hand for shake* Deal. Cool. B-)

Oh. And one minor detail as far as my book project is concerned. I've come to the decision, via the suggestion of a friend. To instead of the 5 chapter chap book as a whole, to release each chapter in parts. So over the course of 5 months (consecutively) I'll unlock each "chamber" so to speak. In big part due to financial reasons. Will supply details on the first one when available.

Well, Its been a little while. But its finally within less than 24 hrs. away!! If you didn't know, since beginning my performance stint in poetry/spoken word 3 yrs. ago. I've performed many times over the tristate metro area. Featured in almost every borough....except Brooklyn. Now I've performed numerous time in BK over the years. But the long awaited chance was answered when The Perch cafe(in Park slope) reached out to me for an opportunity to their feature for Nov. 10th installment of the Literary reading series.

After a week or so of back n forth emails about the specifics, it was finalized a few weeks back. So as of tomorrow evening, from 7pm-8:30pm w/open mic following me; Dtruth will set you free @ The Perch!! Feel free to come through and experience me in a way and type of openness you could never get the chance to see again. If you've never seen one of my performances in Brooklyn b4...this may be the best one yet!! :-)

So if you will please check the flyer below and come through with a friend or two to hear me bless you the a gift that God gave me. B-)

My feat. at soul Sweet Sanctuary last night was just that "SWEET"!

Thanks my people,

What I say bout last night...? Didn't I say it wasn't a performance to miss..?!! Ok. maybe not in so many words but it wasn't. Ya boy Abe was in rare form!!
One thing I gotta say is after the first 30 mins of my feat. I got the room so hot and bothered.​.​.​.​that Zera Priestess (the host) had to give herself and the crowd a 5 or so min. break. Lol. You had to be there to find out what pieces I performed caused that!! (^_^) :-D


Photo of me from my feat. performance @ Soul Sweet Sanctuary last night

I know I'm up a bit early after a few hrs. sleep. But I'd like to thank everyone who came out to the Bx last night @ Soul Sweet Sanctuary to see me feature. It was a great experience feat. in the Bx for the 1st time. I told people I'd be on point. Wasn't I Zera..? ;) Big shout out to the couple Toyia & her husband Patrick who came to NY, all the way from Ohio, to the show celebrating their 3yr ann. Glad I made it worth the trip! :-)

Oooooh!! If I had some CD's on hand I'm telling you, I'd have sold out of them before I left the venue. But I'll make sure to have something on hand in the future, no doubt. I'll put up some footage from the show when its ready. And if anyone has any pics from last night of me on stage, please post them or send them to me in a email @ abgr8est@​yahoo.​com

Dtruth has spoken.​.​.​.​thank you for listening.

Last show of my 3 day stint of shows in Brooklyn.

Peace my people,


Been busy with my work in progress life as of late. But still have made time to go out and perform/network. So...I just wanted to post this for the people who either didn't know or couldn't make it to the last show of mine in BK.(@ Fulton Park on Aug. 22nd) Here is what you missed. And I hope you can make it to future ones. I rarely perform in BK so when I do its extra special for me. Enjoy the video and watch out for updates and info on current & future projects ahead.
