Coached by renowned poets, Yasmin and Crash write and perform original poems at a poetry slam at the world famous Nuyorican Poet’s Cafe.
"Isn't It Funny?" by Crash
it could be so obvious when you look at her
that reggaetón sway and her hip hop ways
that her block was heavily cemented in her veins
a block that was unusual to me
foreign grounds and harsh, heavy sounds
those are the elements that affected
her reggaetón sway and her hip hop ways
unknown to me that people haven't the slightest idea what an enchilada was
as I wonder what the f**k an arepa was
and to tell you the truth
I never yearned to learn who this chica was
the one with her reggaetón sway and her hip hop ways?
until i was forced onto a project
to reflect to the kids
that there could be a reality show
without all that crazy unnecessary drama
two girls from different worlds
could find a common ground
a friendship was born in front of a nation
that was realer than any chicas project airing right now
that chica with her reggaetón ways and her hip hop sway
on the real is my homegirl
without a mothaf***kin doubt
"For New York" by Yasmin
I just want you to know, I love you.
I'm sorry I left at such an early age
but I'm still from you
I'm still your child - I have your smile
your ghetto fabulous style
I even talk with that unique, sometimes funny sound
I'm still that chick from around the way
that always, always, always
has something smart to say
and even though I'm in the west now
with all the fake titties and all the fake crowds
your realness never lets that faze me
matter of fact, that's what saved me
and i just want you to know
that i still love you
