My desire to write started out as poetry, writing the lines
of my life since I was in the Fifth grade.
Poetry was my love and the love grew into songs and I like
to sing them. I am a poet at heart. I try to write on a daily basis but most
importantly, as much as I can with who I am and with what time I have.
I had the opportunity to try applying a piece of my poetry
to music while listening to a musical melody created by my friend, John Mueller.
I took the track, added my poem, sung harmonies and some piano riffs to Mueller's booming bass and guitar riffs, and it became a poetic song entitled, “Funkalicious.”
It is about letting go of your doubts and fears to come into
who you were meant to be. I do not know how many will agree with me, but often
times, when we are in the season of hopes and have aspirations, it is a common
thing for naysayers to speak a tongue of doubt into your spirit to turn all
your hopes into fears. The bigger idea is to not let things come in the way of
who you are and instead, to live with a sense of hope in the things that you
aspire to do.
The poem turned to song, “Funkalicious,” is all about that. Check
it out for yourself and maybe you will be inspired by the words: https://soundcloud.com/stephanay-jnote/funkalicious-by-stephanie-jeannot-john-mueller?si=d3c21fdb1f4d45f68060dfb5fbb405c1
