Nelsan Ellis is no one trick pony. The rising star, who flawlessly captures the essence of Bon Temps Queen Bee, Lafayette, on HBO’s epic “True Blood” series, also has a passion for the spoken word. Ellis makes his debut on up and coming rapper Malachi’s mixtape with a flow reminiscent of the spirit of the Last Poets. Newcomer Malachi’s new single, “New World” (Part II The Schizo Speaks), which also features newbie Carlos Ricketts, Jr., talks about changing our mindsets, and how we all need to look for a “New World” a new state of mind. The song has a throwback B-Boy ’80s dance feel to it, with a dramatic monologue at the end recited by Nelsan Ellis, in which he channels a schizophrenic, homeless man who shares his views on what the world needs. Dramatic…but hey, they’re artists – what can I say? LOL!

Nelsan’s Lyrics: I stand in the midst of perception and reality… Twisted elegance awaits me at the corner…at the street I am the beat that never sleeps I am the heart that gets skipped over by dirty feet on hot concrete my cardboard box tells a story Ive seen break beats persecuted by police Ive seen rain, acid rain fall down to eat ocean waves roar with anger washing up missing strangers DANGER DANGER I call  little baby savior in a manger I am right every-time I give oxygen to your mind I am the treasure that you can you can always find Open up your eyes demise only flourishes with lies there is hope with compromise let little children rise and dance shadows in permission skies let ego lay down in submission for your only mission should be admission into a new institution of solutions let atomic bombs cause no harm let oil spills be sealed let wall street feed the streets let bullying cease let equality be for all peeps LET IT BE, LET IT BE Thoughts??!
