My guest today is Sheopatra Jones, aka She Street aka She. I am really excited to share this conversation, and the drum/dance improvisation that follows. She has been mentioned by multiple guests as an influence and mentor, and following these connections is what this podcast is all about. As a dancer, videographer, director, and choreographer, She Street has worked with a long list of artists including Missy Elliot, Pharrell, Snoop Dogg, Donald Glover, and Estelle. She Street has also formed The Council, an L.A.-based Empowerment Collective that creates space and support for women through the medium of art. The Council is also an undeniably inspiring group of movement artists-follow the links in the description to see some of their work.Our conversation explores her upbringing in Memphis, her organic development as an artist, and the origins and meaning of The Council.We also have a drum and dance exchange that is truly an exchange - She plays drums and we took turns at the kit.CONTENTS00:00:00 - 00:01:33 Introduction00:01:00 - 00:01:33 Conversaton01:18:26 - 01:20:50 Nyboer drum / She dance improvisation01:20:51 - 01:22:30 She drum / Nyboer dance improvisationCREDITSProduction, Writing, Concept, Design, Video, Audio, Music, Photography by John Nyboer/Nyboer PhotographyLINKSShe Street YouTubeThe Council InstagramLaShonté AndersonSmooth Galaxy TikTok Lil Buck YouTubeJon Boogz YouTubeEllen Oscars PromoEstelle New Direction Video
