BORN IN FLAMES

These three female urban warriors love nothing more than mixing elements : Tamar-kali’s afro-punk answers Jean Grae (aka Phenix of the X-Men) and Invincible’s funk-rap. Tamar-kali is the “hardcore-soul queen” from Brooklyn and she speaks only about love and revolution in ecstatic vocal assaults. Invincible is known in Detroit as the pasionaria of social  justice, especially with the help of Anomolies, a hip-hop action  group using quotes and samples from interviews of the men in the  street. Jean Grae was born in Cape Town of such legends as piano  player Abdullah Ibrahim and singer Sathima Bea Benjamin. But her  alias was chosen to rise from the ashes and shout it out loud?  Together they form an alliance, a reference to the movie ? Born in  Flames ? (a Sci-Fi drifting between classes, races and genders),  ready to use any kind of music to foil all pressure against women in  general and especially black, homosexual, and other freaks in the  society of spectacle. Many burning issues for a flammable trio.
