These babies and their mamas and papas (cause Dr. George and Mr. Scott were in the trenches) and brothers and sisters made our Penn State Homecoming experience magical.

I am so grateful for what we are building. Here are some pics of RayDiANCE dancers at the Penn State Homecoming Parade last night. Happy Valley is indeed a little more radiant✨✨✨ #raydraypresents #majorettedance #hbcudance #rayDiANCEdancecompany #halftimewithraydray taken in Penn State University by @raydraypresents

I’m thinking about creating a new live virtual experience through Ray Dray Presents:
✨ Whew Chile! The Group Chat: The National Reset
Clock Out. Tap In.
Think live music, storytelling, laughter, conversation, and exclusive scenes from Whew Chile! Black Women Working—all from the comfort of home or your own watch party.
Before I invest in making it happen, I want to know:
Would you come? 👀
Vote in the poll and tell me what you think!
And if you’d be interested in hosting a watch party, comment HOST and I’ll reach out personally. 💬
Let’s see if we can take The Group Chat nationwide! ❤️

🎶✨ The Groove Was Real Because the Musicians Were Exceptional! ✨🎶
The Whew Yeahs may have brought the afros, attitude, and storytelling, but these incredible musicians brought the SOUL.
A heartfelt thank you to our phenomenal band for helping us transport the audience back to the funky sounds of the 70s and bringing every note, memory, and love story to life.
🎹 Stephen M. Mariner – Music Director & Keyboard
🥁 Darrin Thornton – Drums
🎸 Khalil Frazier – Bass
🎸 Gary Abdullah – Bass Consultant
Your talent, professionalism, creativity, and musicianship elevated every moment of our Juneteenth performance. Thank you for helping us create an experience that was soulful, joyful, and unforgettable.
The Whew Yeahs wouldn’t have been nearly as funky without you! Thank you for keeping the rhythm tight, the groove smooth, and the audience singing along from beginning to end.
Please help us show some love to these amazing artists! 🎶🔥

Stay free. Stay funky. Meet us at the next get-down! ✌🏾🎶
The Whew Yeahs took Juneteenth back to the 70s with afros, soul, sass, and stories that had the crowd laughing, singing, and reminiscing.
For one day only, these ladies clocked out from talking about workplace drama and clocked in to discuss something equally complicated—LOVE. ❤️
Through music, storytelling, and a whole lot of grown-woman truth, The Whew Yeahs celebrated Juneteenth by honoring one of the greatest expressions of freedom: the freedom to laugh, love, heal, and simply enjoy being together.
Thank you to everyone who sang along, clapped along, and caught the groove with us.
Now swipe through and relive the funk! 🪩✨📸 (pics 2&3): @compassandkiloscreative
