Hi! I'm Maëlibé.
I post my art here, along with news about my musical projects (Fannibal musicals, In The Flesh, Star Wars,...)
I am opening commissions soon!
Anonymous: Hi I haven’t seen any updates on Kickstarter about the musical. I haven’t gotten any updates, cds or DVDs. News would be appreciated.
Hi! I’m so sorry I haven’t logged on tumblr in almost a year… When did you send this? I posted some updates in the past 6 months or so, hope you saw them! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask :)
I’ll write you a story, on the spot, for a donation to Puerto Rico or The Hannibal Musical. $10 gets you about 1000 words, drabbles up to 300 words for $5. Story delivered by close on Sunday. Longer stories by negotiation!
Yes, him and little Richard never get their due smh
except…chuck berry didn’t invent rock n roll…
Sister Rosetta Tharpe predates both chuck berry and little richard by quite a few years
Two of Tharpe’s hit songs were released in like 1944-45 when Chuck Berry was a) incarcerated and b) still a high school student, Tharpe basically discovered Little Richard, and she’s referred to as the godmother of rock n roll
lol just
throwin that out there
^^^EXACTLY
but Sister Rosetta was a woman and queer… so Black men will totally overlook her.
rock music was created by a black bisexual woman
Sister Rosetta new idol
Sister Rosetta Rocked the world
Spread the truth and dead the lies
<3 KICK ASS BLACK BISEXUAL MOTHER OF ROCK AND ROLL <3
I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS WOMAN!
MUSIC NERDS - EDUCATE ME NOW!
I’m almost positive this is the same woman who actually sang “You Ain’t Nothin But A Hound Dog” first before Elvis stole it…
And her version was BETTER
WAIT! WHAT?
He didn’t sing that first? I need air and music. Someone tell me more.
Big Mama Thornton recorded Hound Dog in 1952. She is the first.
See this just makes that song actually make sense to me for the first time so you know, hat-tip for that, too, you have relieved my endless puzzlement I’ve had since I was a small child.
Wonderful documentary on her life & legacy in rock n roll
Today, March 20th is her birthday so can we just take the time to list some of her amazing accomplishments
- she was one of the very first great gospel artists who crossed over into r&b, rock n roll, and gained mainstream success
- she frequently performed with a racially integrated band
- guitar playing was seen as a “man’s” skill, but that didn’t stop her from beating out many guys in guitar battles at the Apollo
- she may have been one of the first successful black artists to even have a tour bus with her name on it
- this woman literally turned her wedding day into a rock concert for over 20,000 fans
- openly bisexual in her private life
- she sang with little richard in what would be his first public performance at her concert
- she held a successful tour in the UK during the early 1960′s well before the “british invasion” of rock n roll
Omg we did it and killed it and the guests all saw and loved every minute and hugged us and I’m dead! #hannibal #hannibalthemusical #fannibal #hannibalcon #rdc3
LOOK AT OUR AMAZING ALANA AND MARGOT
I MISS YOU GUYS SO HARD
😭😭😭😭 we miss you toooooo! Hopefully it won’t be long until we are working on the second project
in the Hannibal fandom we don’t say “I love you”, we recreate scenes from the show and the cast and creator stand up and clap enthusiastically at our reenactment of our ship sailing, and I think it’s beautiful
