Heart is a prototype 5D Story. It is a book, album, short film, live stage performance, and interactive map of New Orleans (Crossroad City). Hip Hop and spoken word roots, with funk, Bounce, gospel, soul and reggae influences, Heart testifies about the tribulations and revels in the rhythm of life.
