Minstrel Tension

From race to religion, Chocolate Genius tells it like it is.

Got to be a Chocolate Genius: Take a peek at Marc Anthony Thompson.
Got to be a Chocolate Genius: Take a peek at Marc Anthony Thompson.

One of the cities through which Thompson will be traveling is Denver, when Chocolate Genius opens for Ndegeocello at the Bluebird Theater. A live Chocolate Genius set is as strange and arresting as the recordings. "My love affair with the audience is like any other love affair," Thompson says. "The highs are why we keep on believing in love, but all too frequently we take each other for granted. We flip the songs nightly. Sometimes the only thing that remains is a fragment of the lyrics. Other times we are faithful as locked-down cellmates. I got to learn that Bubba Sparxxx tune for St. Louis. Man, that rocks."
