Wordplay w/Goldie Jawn
By: Deesha Dyer

I remember the first time I met Goldie aka Z - it was at a Koresh dance class some years ago. Little did I know she’d be the same chic I’d run in weekly at hip-hop shows and dance parties. Little did I also know that she would start a musical career. After you read the below Wordplay, slide over to her music page to check out her rhyme style - myspace.com/goldiejawn
