Brittany Williams (@bspokeit227) will be performing/hosting tonight at #undivided9 | #LinkInBio . Brittany Williams is a writer and poet from Georgia who's mission as an artist is to bring life to words that bring life to people. She comes from a very diverse background. Her roots come from a British-Jamaican mother and a West Indian father, but she was born in Colorado, and raised in the heat of Atlanta. As a young kid she wanted to be an architect because she loved the idea of designing and building new things. She wanted to change the world and she figured the best way to do that was to redesign it. But she also wanted to be an 'artist'. She loved to sing, and compose pieces of poetry based on the thoughts of her young mind and started writing in the 5th grade when she received her first journal for Christmas. But it wasn't until she shared an entry from a free writing session at an open mic her senior year in high school that she realized the power of the spoken word. This revelation set Brittany on a journey to embrace her identity as an artist, but It didn't happen overnight or easily. She struggled with thoughts of having to choose between being an 'artist' and being what others thought she should be; responsible. After some setbacks she put her desire to write, design and be a performing artist on hold to finish her degree in landscape architecture and environmental design. But after college she began a path to discovering who she really was which took her around the country and around the world and eventually landed her in San Francisco where she was introduced to Lyrical Opposition at a Valentine's Day open mic. Almost instantly her heart was connected to the hearts and vision of the artists and community members of LO. Today Brittany performs as a Lyrical Opposition poet as well as helps the team build the mission of creating a safe, positive and dynamic community for those like herself to discover who they really are, find their voice and embrace their identity as artists. . #BayArea #SanBruno #Undivided #SpokenWord #Poetry #BspokeItPoetry #ParadigmRhymes #LyricalAcademy #LyricalLaFamilia #LyricalOps #LyricalOpposition (at Lyrical Opposition)

Cheddy (@onechedz) will be performing tonight at #undivided9 | #LinkInBio . Cheddy is an  Artist / Poet / Actress from San Bruno, CA. She had established an outlet for her own expression since a young teen. In 6th grade, she was inspired by her cousin, known as AyeTony / T1 productions and his crew when they started making their own music and building their own studio - she then realized it is possible for her to make music. She then started writing her own songs and poetry. By 8th grade, she grew passionate for the art of acting and began studying the craft. . 2011, Cheddy attended college to study more about music production. Not having enough funds to pay for the whole school year - she decided to study as much as she can for that semester, then dropped out. She then invested and purchased her own music equipment and started making beats (production name, OneChedz). Cheddy conveys a smooth style with an organic dulcet sound, with a sense of Bay Area feel. . Shortly after, she struggled with the usage of alcohol and other substances - partying was her only priority.  It was at a Christian event in 2012 did she find her faith and her identity in Christ. She soon began seeking God for her purpose and at a revival she attended she received her answer which was, music and this entertainment industry. She knew her passions as a young teen wasn't a phase to be neglected. In 2013, she created a clothing line and a motion called Sway Up. It is served to bring hope to this generation through truth, fashion, and style; and will be dropping more clothing & snap backs this year. . Wanting to surround herself with people that has similar goals, she found and reached out to the director of Lyrical Opposition. Soon enough she started attending their workshops and events, and performed under them. Later on she was inducted into Lyrical Opposition as an artist for poetry, spoken word, and theater. . Cheddy had performed spoken word at many youth services, churches, events, open mics, as well as rapping at youth events and church.
