solSource and 88 team up to deliver one of the hottest parties as a part of the 2010 Can A Sista Rock a Mic? Festival. X, originally created by 88, will take on a whole new energy for one night as CASRAM showcases arts of the future by women. It’s hard for us to describe what you’ll experience but we do know we’re waiting on final word on whether or not drinks will be served! Conveniently in downtown Silver Spring, we’ve taken over what we call our own space, “solSpace” and will deliver a night to remember. Come with an open artistic mind, ready to dance and enjoy the beginning of Summer, end of the week, and the middle of the Festival! For the arts exhibition, we’ve given three words for everyone to play with: PASSION, FEAR, CONSEQUENCE
The MEDIA DISDAIN Visual art show will display works by emerging female visual artists creating pieces that speak to the array of expectations, roles, and archetypes that are portrayed within media and music. Several disciplines will be exhibited.
Let your senses free…
Live exhibition of Graphic Design + Fashion + Art + DJs + more!

Sister Bohemia Takes Bohemian Caverns
April 22
Bohemian Caverns
11th & U Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20009
8 p.m.
Experience the rapture of Sister Bohemia. Hosted by Simone Jacobson, this event is a must-see, featuring musical guests, Tamika “Love” Jones and Carolyn Malachi.
Tamika Love Jones, a DC native and representative in her own right, charms music lovers with a gospel-jazz tonality aimed to touch the soul. Her development into music after losing loved ones to drugs and violence deems Jones’ art even more imperative as it penetrates the lives of young people, the heart of her community. Invited to work with the likes of artists Faith Evans, Mya and Grammy Award Winner, songwriter, Denise Rich, Jones is no stranger to the prospect of stardom; still, she walks her own path, performing at live festivals, private events, and especially community affairs, where her music moves the hearts and hopes of many.
Moving and shaking her audience, not to mention the jazz genre altogether, is Smart Chicks Inc. founder and poster chick, Carolyn Malachi. Having finished a February tour in sunny South Africa, only to bring a hot spell to Georgetown’s Blues Alley, the trailblazer makes her way to Bohemian Caverns, where the day is hot, but the night will blaze. Also a Maryland-DC dweller, Malachi continues to advance theRevenge of the Smart Chicks movement with what she calls a “haute-eclectic-soular-blues.” Great-granddaughter to jazz pianist, John Malachi, and acclaimed activist as well, Carolyn Malachi is nothing short of a headliner.
Also on Deck
Tamika and Carolyn will be styled by Madia Willis, designer and owner of BiriBelle clothing. The afrochic clothing line was inspired by Willis' study abroad experience in Ghana. The BiriBelle logo comes from the symbol “hye wonhye,” (shay-wo-en-shey) meaning “permanent or unburnable.” It’s no question, Willis is here to stay.
This event is sponsored by Fusicology, Mr. Briggs Management, BiriBelle Clothing, and Smart Chicks Inc. Tickets are $10 in advance, $15 at the door. The event commences at Bohemian Caverns, 8p.m. on 11th and U Street, April 22, 2010.

Huge "THANKS" to all who joined my friends and I at Blues Alley on Monday evening. Genesis Poets, 2Deep the Poetess, Tiffany Okafor, Messiah, and 13 of Nazareth worked so diligently on ensuring the success of the event. With the first show sold out and a fervent audience at the second show, it was indeed successful. All who attended had a blast. I feel that my ancestors were also in attendance and on one accord.
Catch me and my band next with Tamika Love Jones at Bohemian Caverns on April 22. Tickets are available now at www.bohemiancaverns.com.
John Chambers is the Chief Gardener at BloomBars, the community arts space at which I am a resident. Always with camera in tow, he shot this exclusive footage at one of our last rehearsals before the Blues Alley shows. Here's a sneak peak at how all of the fun came together.

First I Wanna Thank My Momma....
So, the great news that I wanted to keep secret (but obviously couldn't) is that I and
a few other artists from Maryland are winners of the Maryland Arts Council 2010
Individual Artist Award.
Here's the Press Release from Governor Martin O'Malley:
http://www.msac.org/
Join me Monday night with my fellow BloomBars residents and favorite poets at
"U Street Comes to Blues Alley: Carolyn Malachi & Friends", my next stop on this
road to the 2K10 Grammys.
Seed that!

Hi, brilliant people. It's almost time for Blues Alley and we are aggressively punting the U Street Comes to Blues Alley: Carolyn Malachi and Friends event on Monday, March 15. My Smart Chick mentee/intern wrote this press release which I would like to distribute on Wednesday morning. If you have an eye for editing, will you take a look at it to help edit it? Please write your feedback in the comments section. Thanks!
Carolyn Malachi: the hottest dish at Blues Alley
Firing up jazz lovers everywhere, vocalist/emcee Carolyn Malachi is headed to the alley—Blues Alley, that is.
Hit single, “Orion,” from her latest album, Revenge of the Smart Chicks III: Eclectic Company, sent shockwaves through Johannesburg, South Africa as Malachi dished a familiar yet nonetheless delectable mix of fierce vocals, dope rhymes and a mean band to match. The supernova just barely cooled her heels and now, she’s headed north. Surely, Georgetown should brace itself for the shooting star headed its way.
Born 1965, Blues Alley jazz club has become a Georgetown landmark, housing the ensembles of Grover Washington Jr., Nancy Wilson, Sara Vaughn, Phyllis Hyman, Najee and many more. Come March 15th, however, Georgetown’s heart of music and history makes way for none other than Malachi herself. The sensational Smart Chick is back with a vengeance, and this time, she’s got a few friends in tow as she makes her mark at the Alley, home to hot jazz and timeless treasures. Joining Malachi for this grand affair include 13 of Nazareth, Two Deep the Poetess, Tiffany Okafor and Messiah Ramkissoon.
Carolyn Malachi, founder and proud face of Smart Chicks Inc., started the organization as a hub for creativity and individuality among women in the arts. “Ambition, brains and candor” are the three-course entrée, and everyone’s VIP by making the daily smart decision to be yourself. Embodying the Smart Chick mantra enticingly and without pause, Malachi is ready to serve her alterjazzhop mantra hot and steamy.
Experience Carolyn Malachi and friends, March 15, 2010 at 8pm and 10pm. Tickets are $20 and they’re moving fast; get yours today at www.bluesalley.com.
Carolyn Malachi at Blues Alley is a must-see show that will surely deliver a night to remember. Bring your friends, family or just yourself, and expect excellence at its essence.
Find yourself fiending? Keep up with Carolyn at www.facebook.com/CMalachi; follow her via www.twitter.com/Carolyn_Malachi and be sure to tune in for new postings at www.youtube.com/Malachimusic. For more information about Smart Chicks Inc., visit the official website at www.smartchicksinc.org.

Chess + S.T.E.M. + Hip-Hop = Bum Rush the Boards
"They might think they've got a pretty good jump shot or a pretty good flow, but our kids can't all aspire to be the next LeBron or Lil' Wayne. I want them aspiring to be scientists and engineers, doctors and teachers, not just ballers and rappers."
President of the United States, Barack H. Obama, at the 100-year anniversary of the NAACP.
On Saturday, April 10, 2010 from 10 a.m.-6 p.m., Words Beats & Life (WBL) in partnership with the Historical Society of Washington and the Columbia Heights Youth Club will host the fifth annual Bum Rush the Boards Hip-Hop Chess Tournament. The tournament will take place at the Historical Society of Washington located at 801 K St. NW at Mount Vernon Square Washington, DC 20001. Bum Rush the Boards was created by WBL in 2005 to promote strategic thought and actions within the hip-hop community. The name of the event was inspired by Public Enemy's album, "Yo! Bum Rush the Show" released in October 1987.
This year, Bum Rush the Boards will consist of three rounds of team-based tournament play for youth, ages 5-23. There will also be three rounds of individual competition for adults. Between rounds, a series of hip-hop based interactive workshops will be conducted. These workshops give chess players the opportunity to have hands-on learning experiences based on the core elements of hip-hop culture. Participants will also participate in a series of S.T.E.M. -based workshops called "Engineering a Culture."
Beginning with our 2010 tournament, there will be a specific focus on career exploration in S.T.E.M.A. We know that S.T.E.M.A. is important because together, these areas of study and employment constitute key components of the creative economy, one of the largest employment sectors in the United States.
