And she’s gotta have a powerful sounding name too! Like an Arc Angel, or named after a saint or something! There’s actually a saint that went “John Wick” on her husband’s murderers! She could be named after her
This is the best thing i have ever heard. I found her because of "bitches" that's been all over my latino community pages. Seriously this woman is my spirit sister!!
When I saw the title I thought “This is gonna be hilarious!” ... I had tears in my eyes by the end of the video from thinking of my grandma. Está genial!
You speak in a way that makes everyone pay freaking attention (even if I didn't understand admittedly everything you meant but your passion told me you did which is what matters most
She’s have good resemblance of AOC dead on and pretty, really really good at acting her poetry.. I would love to see the documentary, if any director takes it on
Yeh her wording is excellent. And very relatable. But she needs to take a music class. Learn some new cadences, and rhythms..and some work on the volume. Instead of the emotional shifts seeming random...slowly build up to an emotion couples steps up...step back..steps up. Etc.. till it hits a sort of climax. Yeh these poems are cool but so many of the spoken word poems have the same rhythm and trends..it takes a cool story like this..and makes it sound like every other slam/spoken word poem.
I low key want a movie about this
I high key want it
"Abuelita: Warrior, Zombie-Destroying"
was thinking the exact same thing

THIS QUEEN NEEDS TO BE IN SNL
Please keep her pure; don't ruin her with that show.
This was so funny but also so touching. That last line made me want to cry.
