#wcw with Queen Amina Blackwood Meeks & Her New, yet Vintage Rendition of Miss Lou!

by Brand JamaicaWhat's Hot
Gabby Burgess of Suga Lifestyle with Amina Blackwood Weeks who performed her new, ‘Miss Lou 2024’ at The Poetry Society of Jamaica’s Monthly Fellowship last night, September 24, 2024 at Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts.

So honoured to have heard it first at The Poetry Society of Jamaica’s monthly poetry fellowship last night at the Amphitheatre of Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts.

Amina Blackwood Meeks’ MISS LOU 2024 took us way back, with views and perspectives of Miss Lou from members of our society and her own family, both positive and negative. I thoroughly enjoyed the intermittent rhythmic flow, reminiscent of a true warrior.

Amina incorporated classic lines and references from Miss Lou herself and ultimately, a call to respect and embrace our talents, our culture.

We must appreciate the value of our own and pay what is due. A direct, yet indirect call for Poetic Justice, while tributing our Best Poet and Folklorist, Miss Louise Bennett, familiarly known to us as, Miss Lou. Miss Lou contributed significantly to our Jamaican theatre, culture, particularly to our language and the literary arts for over 50 years.

For what we were blessed to experience for Free, I hope others pay every dollar.

It warms our heart as Artists when buyers see pieces they immediately relate to and are ready to claim as theirs with no hesitation.

Ambrose visited The Liguanea Club to see where they filmed The James Bond Movie, “Dr. No” and sighted GW Art. He instantly thought of his Mom who is a Piano teacher, messaged GW Art and was ready to take a piece of Brand Jamaica back with him to the UK.

Gabby Burgess of Suga Lifestyle with her AnnieB at EITS Cafe in Irish Town, Kingston, Jamaica [Date of Visit: Saturday, September 7, 2024]

It’s always great breathing in the fresh air in the Blue. Adding farm to table, freshly made food is Brawta!

Known for their Barrel Roasted Chicken, I switched things up, starting with their tasty Tomato Bruschetta (on bammy!) and tried the new lightly Curried pineapple Chicken which was seasoned so well…a fantastic balance, as it wasn’t too spicy. The sweet potato croquettes that accompanied it, were perfection. Loved it! Awesome dish.

Their Saltfish Fritters and Shrimp Pasta with herb Pesto are usually hits too.

***N.B. Not always Paw-friendly… Check in with the Owner first, to make sure the big ones aren’t there 🙂 Reservations recommended; Call +1 (876) 367-8191***

Remember, Balance is Key… Enjoy Jamaica!

Have a Great Weekend!

A Thankful Tuesday… When Starting an Art Collection begins with GW Art!

by Brand JamaicaGW ArtWhat's Hot
Suga Lifestyle, GW Art’s Gabby Burgess with Shermalie Hill at The Jamaica Pegasus, Kingston, Jamaica on September 3, 2024.
Suga Lifestyle’s Art & Lifestyle Expo Meet & Greet at AC Hotel Kingston, Jamaica on August 9, 2024

I know these “Tailored Jamaican” Ladies will bring Shermalie Joy everyday.

It was on set Jamaica Stock Exchange’s CBX Channel one morning promoting Suga Lifestyle’s annual Tailored Jamaican Pop-Up Fashion Show event last October, when he first laid eyes on them and kept asking, so when will it be finished?

I kept saying, not yet, when it is you will know. When I saw the locally designed Dress I would be wearing for the Art & Lifestyle Expo Meet & Greet in August, I instantly fell in love with all the colours that complemented each other. I said, that is it! GW Art’s “Tailored Jamaican” Ladies will be complemented by those colours too and they will stand by me whenever I speak. The Painting was showcased at my GW Art (Ig: @gwartbygabby) booth the next day at the Expo, making quite a statement in AC Hotel Kingston’s Ballroom. When Shermalie saw it, he smiled and said, you finally finished it and it didn’t take too long for him to tell ke he was ready to start his Collection with local Art.

When you Invest in Local Art, you Invest in Jamaica.

XoXo,
Suga
