The Freshest Breathe of Hip Hop and Live Show New York City has seen in a long while.
Feel good music blended with crisp, creative rhymes.
Ready to share with the world.
Brooklyn, New York City. Faro Z puts the pen to paper and words to the microphone. One of the most versatile and gifted MCs in the history of the art form. Deriving his name from Faro, the Bambara god of spoken word, Faro Z embodies that energy, and entertains and educates through music. Faro Z is the solution to the prevailing trend in commercial Hip-Hop. He compels the listener to do more than listen, to do more than learn the words to the hook, to do more than dance to the beat - Faro Z will make you feel the music in your soul just the way he does as it is flows out of him.
Some of the rapper's favorite artists include KRS-1, Rakim, Redman, Jay-Z, Biggie, Supernatural, Gangstar, Wu-tang Clan, Big Pun, Mos Def, and Black Thought. As many of those names mentioned are paragons of Hip-Hop lyricism, one could imagine that Faro Z is all about lyricism - it flows through his veins and every one of his songs is evidence of that fact.

LITTLE MAROONS PARENT COOP DAYCARE
RAFFLES FOR MASSAGE THERAPY AND MORE!
Little Maroons is a parent-run childcare co-operative operating from a child-led African-centered curriculum rooted in indigenous wisdom. In the spirit of the maroon communities, the children are encouraged to embody the principles of independence, self-determination and co-operation.
Maroon communities (also known as quilombos and palenques) developed almost everywhere that enslaved Africans were brought in the Americas & the Caribbean. They were independent communities created by Africans that had rebelled and or escaped from their enslavers frequently within the first generation of their arrival from Africa. There, they often preserved their African languages and many of their cultural traditions. In many cases Maroon communities allied themselves with the local indigenous communities.
