Alixa and Naima make up a Heart Beat Soul Sister Artist Warrior duo called "Climbing PoeTree". On a mission to re-envision the world through evolutionary art that speaks truth to power, Climbing PoeTree is renowned for its unique two-tongued performance in which Alixa and Naima layer and weave their voices in polyrhythmic cadence. Having gained notoriety throughout New York City's underground, across college campuses, and throughout the bohemias of urban America for their explosive lyrics and emotive delivery, Alixa and Naima have blazed stages across 35 states and 3 countries, and spit fire on 600 mikes and counting since their debut in 2003.
Now Climbing Poetree’s lyrical prowess have combined with the musical genius of an impressive assembly of vocalists and producers to create a new brand of dub poetry.
THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE POETRY CD!
AMMUNITION:
Rhyme and reason,
home girls and hand grenades,
rhythm and song served chilled with a straw.
This long awaited project is now available for your ingestion!
