UVI Student Activities: We From Ya Concert Review

On Tuesday evening the University of the Virgin Islands hosted "We from Ya Concert." This was organized for local artists and even those who attend the university to showcase just what they can bring to the table. Student activities director Sophia Johnson, set an amazing show in motion. We know a few of these artist who graced the stage, artists like, Niza X, Junior Sparks, Gyasi Clarke, Michonde and George from "YGT The Band" Kruziano, Uncle Mundo, Kimo Dan, Tizzi Tizzi, AJ Davinchi, Crazo Coto, and Nadia. Then we have the new, up and coming artist such as: Kita, Smokey, Aloe and more. The scene for the evening was set, it was breathtaking, inspiring and entertaining. The Virgin Islands has unlimited talent as we have said time and time again, and it takes alot of guts to step out unto a stage and perform not knowing what's to be expected. Then you're not sure if the crowd would like what you've worked extremely hard on, there's the time taken to write, produce and distribute the song to the right platforms. Let's hope the people of the VI paid close attention to the successful event that was the We from Ya Concert. Music tells a story and helps the artist to express themselves in ways we wouldn't imagine possible. Each artist took the stage by storm, they were a force to be reckoned with. The thing that amazed us were the artist who weren't performing, but still supporting in unity. If we continue in unison nothing can stop our little Virgin Islands artists from receiving the recognition they all deserve. Most of these artist have been doing music for 2-3 years and some of us weren't aware. Why is that? Well the reason behind that is simple, if its not your genre of music it won't be on your radar. Sophia and her entire team did a great job with the entire event. Looking forward to the next one.
