I’m too tired to be active on socials, promote my art AND accomplish everything I want with
| wordstobepoetry |
but then, when I focus 100000% on my project, I feel guilty for not promoting it & sharing more of it and my creative process with all of you.
And I feel I loose the algo’s + your interest in what I create
I feel stuck
WTF should I do?

This past weekend's music madness is still grooving in my cells, and it’s already time to think about the next one!
I can’t wait to take our getaway to discover a festival in Saint-Julien-en-Genevois, France which has been on my bucket list for way too long: Guitare en Scène.
And what better for a first visit to this festival dedicated to the mastery of guitar playing than with Ben Harper and The Innocent Criminals?
All I know is the thought of it inspired me:
|| breed the rave ||
a finger or two,
a chord or a bee,
and a riff by the sea
—here come the strings
to breed the rave
music threads
in our heads
Can’t wait to add this night to the list of | wordstobemusic | — vol. 5’s getaways.
See you by our clouds

Every time I hear one of Tyla’s songs, I start dancing like there’s no tomorrow—the way her voice blends into her amapiano gets me crazy.
It’s no surprise: her catalog is an amapiano banger: “Water”, “CHANEL”, “PUSH 2 START (to name a few) are all on the starting blocks to make you dance until the break of dawn.
I remember writing a lot of poems on the dance floor as her catalog was blasting through the speakers—Yet, as I was listening to her new songs, it was the way she stepped down the rhythm on “IS IT LOVE” that inspired me.
|| mtx ||
over the years, we've been
dancing in between
peaceful waves of glee
and tearful rain of boogie
—oh, how delulu we've been...
over the fears, how we've been
dancing over our dreams
—no tears in between.
oh, how we've been...
in love in between...

|| see me be || popped up in my head just a few bars into “FEEL SOMETHING” by Sasha Keable —my mind swamped by the heavy, repetitive, and minimalist beat building a trance-flavored vibe around the song’s vocals.
Add Sasha Keable’s fierce sense of authenticity and mastery of soul singing on top, and I’m all in!

Last night marked the start of the highly awaited 60th Montreux Jazz Festival. And this edition has already mic-dropped all expectations: Raye opened the festival with an intimate tailor-made love letter to the festival featuring—cherry on the top—two music legends on stage to perform with her: Mark Ronson and none other than Queen Alicia Keys.
At this point, I feel useless to tell you more to convince you to come asap to Montreux. You know the rest of this edition will follow up on all expectations.
You have until July 18th, 2026 to join the party 👀

2:51 am—last handful of glue, shiny paper, all set. I take a few steps back. There it is, standing tall in front of me, on one of my favorite walls in El Born:
| I was made to divinize |
My 1,5 m paste-up tribute to ROSALÍA’s performance in Barcelona during her 2026 LUX Tour.
A performance? Call it a work of art—I’ve rarely seen this kind of perfection on stage. And I’ve been on the road for the past 20+ years…
All I remember is running home after the show to draw “divinize” lyrics, unable to get my mind out of the trip it put me into…and, two months later, it’s still a challenge to put what I’ve experienced that night into words. { who knows, maybe it’ll pop up on | wordstobemusic | — vol.5’s pages }
So, when I went back to Barcelona earlier this month, I left a note about that night, to remind all of us what ROSALÍA left on our minds that night
we are all made to divinize 🤍

Every time I walk in front of the Artquemy Gallery + Lab, I’m amazed by the art on its door and how it evolves through time.
So when I was asked to add my contribution to its door, and was allowed to invade its back door, my cloud jumped to the roof 🥳
THANK YOU Artquemy Gallery + Lab for allowing me to add my poetry to your doors 🌸
The cool art on its door is nothing compared to the gems you’ll find inside—a must-do in Barcelona!

| wordstobemusic | — vol. IV
proof copy delivered at home!
🤩😱🤩😱🤩😱🤩
can’t believe I’m finally holding it in my hands!!
after all the endless hours creating every page, from the text to the layout, design, the concept, the drawings, the stories, the poems…..hours stuck in front of the computer/the tablet, with no more words to think and a thousand more to draw/write….it feels surreal!!!!
still a few step to go: build the website, its web3 twin, write a bit more and voilà, drop date will be around the corner sooner than you think 👀
will you join our getaway?

2 years since the diagnosis & 4th round of MS treatment later, I still can’t believe this is my life now….
nor can I believe that I was actually looking forward and happy to get it this time…
yet, my veins weren’t at all 🤣!
It took 3 very good nurses and 4 needles to find one up for the mission!
but now, I feel brand new & fresh 😎
Just in time to get ready for | wordstobemusic | — vol. IV’s drop 🥰

Music gem alert !
D’Angelo’s live at the Montreux Jazz Festival back in 2000 is a pure gem!
The groove, the harmonies, the vibrations—everything in his performance reaches perfection and authenticity
Rest in Harmony, D’Angelo ☁️❤️
Please enjoy his artistry (feat. Questlove on the drums) ⤵️

D’Angelo passed away 🥺
It literally gave me anxiety learning this
Music lost so much 🥺😭
Saw him perform twice—I feel blessed and grateful to have witnessed his artistry on stage. Pure genius. Pure simplicity. Pure authenticity. Pure magic.
Music’s | natural mystic | at its upmost beauty.
Rest In Harmony, D’Angelo
