Sometimes when I hear my heart language, it's never really coupled with a definition. / Because every translation is really just an English proclamation and I wish that every time someone asks me, "Do you remember the language? I'd rather just tell them I'm fluent in listening..." ⁣

"The Freedom Story was born from a documentary film called The SOLD Project. When our founder Rachel Sparks learned about child sexual exploitation in Thailand, she decided to expose it through the power of film. After interviewing dozens of sex workers, common themes became apparent: poverty, a lack of education, and a lack of options. Rachel responded by providing a scholarship to an at-risk student, and The Freedom Story was born.

In his powerful spoken word performance "Graffiti Artist," poet Jermaine Hughes takes the audience on a vivid, metaphorical journey exploring the themes of self-expression, identity, and the reclamation of public space.

"The Sweet Life" is a captivating spoken word performance by poet Bspokeit that invites the audience to reflect on the true meaning of living a fulfilling life. Through vivid, lyrical verse, the poet explores the nuances of finding joy and contentment amidst life's inevitable challenges.

In his powerful spoken word piece "not a fan.", OD the Wordsmith challenges the audience to examine the difference between being a devoted "follower" of Jesus and merely a "fan" of the faith. Through rhythmic, impactful verse, the poet draws a vivid contrast between those who wholeheartedly commit to the teachings and sacrifice of Christ, and those who passively consume the Christian message without true transformation.

At E3 2013, held in Los Angeles from June 11th to June 13th, Lyrical Opposition had the opportunity to sit down with Ken Ogasawara, the Senior Producer working on the highly anticipated Sonic Lost World.

As one of the major titles being showcased at that year's Electronic Entertainment Expo, Sonic's latest 3D platforming adventure was playable on the show floor for attendees. Lyrical Opposition, representing a leading authority on video game music, did not focus the interview with Ken on the game's soundtrack and audio design.
