After premiering in competition at Karlovy Vary, it could echo across more festivals as well as arthouse distributors throughout Europe. Broken Voices The Bottom…

Naomi, mom to 2-year-old daughter Shai with ex Cordae, continued, “When we first had this conversation I stared at him blankly, I didn’t really understand what he was trying to say to me and truthfully the topic made me panic. After a couple days a realization suddenly hit me.” Namely, what it means to be 13 years into her professional career. “I’ve been playing tennis since I was 3, playing professionally since I was 14 and I’m 27 now. I’ve lived almost my entire life playing this sport and I guess it’s true,” she shared. “I am closer to the end…

“I want to hear an American poem,” rings out the voice of Ras Baraka to introduce the second act of Beyoncé’s stadium-conquering Cowboy Carter Tour. “Something American, you know. Some sassy s–t, or South Carolina slave shouter, Alabama backwoods church shack call and response… Are there any American poets in here?”  Baraka — the current mayor of Newark, N.J., spoken word poet and son of Black Arts Movement luminaries Amiri and Amina Baraka — asks a question that Beyoncé sketches out an answer to through her career-spanning, three-hour Cowboy Carter spectacle.
