MC Flow Song - "Everybody"

It's time to go with the flow...MC FLOW!!! <--- stole that from her bio...I laughed a lot. :)

I have only seen MC Flow (aka Abby Schwartz) perform once in public....other times were at our community gatherings among campfires and good food. When Feeding the Soul decided to bring 5 powerful female artist together to create and event to help raise money for Rock 'n' Roll Camp for Girls, MC Flow was at the top of our list! It was our Muse-ic Event and it raised 4 scholarships for girls wanting to attend the camp but couldn't due to financial restrictions. MC Flow was without a voice once the event came around but sent her ammmmazing friend Lauren DeRose to step in, along with merch and CDs to help raise money for the little female rockers. She contributed so much even though she wasn't able to be there. Amazing!

If you have seen her perform you are among the many jaw-dropping friends who love her witty and fast rhymin rappin'. She won Best Hip-Hop Album at the 2008 San Diego Music Awards, for her record Incredible, and in 2009 she won Best Hip-Hop. She is also a difference maker everyday...especially in the LGBT community. We reached out to her to see if we could use the LGBT Center for a screening of May I Be Frank and she welcomed us in with open arms. THANK YOU for helping us coordinate such a successful night!

I asked her to tell us about the song she contributed to the FTSF CD and this was what she said:

"The song "Everybody" is really about the universality of humankind -- how, when we break it all down, we are really all the same, no matter where we come from or what we look like. It's about having a positive outlook, being true to yourself and giving back when you can. I think it's vital that we all be grateful for the time we are given here are earth and that we use that time to make the world a better place. That was the message I was trying to get across with the song. We are all connected. We are all blessed with the power to make a difference."

Listen to "Everybody" here.

Thank you MC Flow for being such a stand for quality, love, and contribution. We honor you for all that you do...and we thank you for being our friend.
