Poem For Jean Binta-Breeze
Binta Tribute Piece
Chorus:
It’s all about the simple tings of life, no point in getting stressed, she rocked the rhythms in her chair, Brushed a hand across her hair, Miles of travel was in her stare, You could never compare, Jean Binta-Breeze was a Queen and her poems will always reign supreme!
Spoken Word
Jean Binta-Breeze was a Queen and her poems will always reign supreme. Every time she recited a poem her face gleamed a smile with a thousand answers to questions unanswered her words dancing to rhythms she heard in her head. In the time that she was in she was definitely ahead, a visionary and unapologetic in everything she said, a one woman festival who turned words into music and moved beyond language into sound.
I’m privileged to have met her and so proud that she made Leicester her 2nd home town,
A true Jamaican who came with a new style who never backed down and gave me the confidence to come with my own sound
That’s why your words are so important now and I want to thank you for reminding me and for reminding us, that it’s all about the simple tings of life!
Jean Binta-Breeze we celebrate your life…
It’s all about the simple tings she said it’s all about the simple tings!
