First off thank you Chicagoland for 6 months of success at Mixtape Mondays at The Spoken Word Cafe. We are only as good as our client base and ya'll brought the talent, love and respect every Monday night. Right now we are currently looking for a new venue that shares a similar vision and is willing to give us more support. Jimilita Tillman who owns the Spoken Word is making it virtuously impossible to continue there.
Again thank you for the support and we will keep you posted on a new night.
Sincerely, AwoL from Oregano Recording Studio, JBILLZ, and your host Notrydo
