'Sis Drea' impresses at Mantlwaneng

Like one famous poet once put it, "Poets are soldiers who liberate words from the steadfast possession of meaning as evidenced by her coining of the word 'soems'- meaning a combination of songs and poetry. Drea, with a high level of proficiency in the spoken-word, set the stage ablaze as she brought words to life on stage backed up by a live band.

The show, which was called Andreattah Live, saw the poet who also dubs herself a songstress, dish out and captivate the audience with soems. Drea stated that her rather poetic album 1981 Was A Good Year, which was released early this year, is an expression and appreciation of love for her art. On taking the stage she started her performance with her song House of Zion much to the approval of the attendees.
