Marcus Cinque Harris aka MH the Verb joins us to talk about anxiety, depression, substance abuse, intergenerational trauma and mental health in the black community. A world class multi-media artist, MH also discusses how music and the arts has served as a coping tool for not only himself but his community at large.
BIO: Multi-media artist, MH the Verb uses afro-futurism to build community while blending jazz, funk, hip hop, and electronic arts. The MC/DJ/Producer has built a spacey catalog by mixing live instrumentation & studio production featuring musicians from from his Philadelphia-based collective, ArtHouse95. Complimented by his deep voice and poetic activism, MH the Verb speaks to multiple generations with anthemic power delivering flows like affirmations.
