OMG‼️ I got to meet the DJ ANNA🎤🔥

I went to the Love FM Festival (Oct 9)to say thank you the popular DJ ANNA of LoveFM, a multilingual FM station in JP, for introducing Nuyorican Poets CAFE to the public first time in JP. 

I was not sure if I would be able to see her, but I was lucky enough to run into her between the programs.

I had to make her pose four times because the sunglasses darkened the viewfinder, but she was so kind to take the picture with me😅

Next, I hope I could talk more about Cafe🎤🍾 in the LoveFM Studio along with poetry readings📕‼️

Thank you so much DJ ANNA❣️
