    Mixtape Anthology v2 "TRIGGER WARNING"

    Our mixtape anthologies are a compilation of music, poetry, speeches, and varying sound bites. This curation is meant to be an extension of the "The Open Stage", providing an opportunity to further amplify the artists who share their stories with us. It is a listening space, a learning space, and a living artifact. Trigger Warning, was created with the idea of Freedom of Creativity at the forefront. Living in a world where AI can create art, we felt it was important to provide a reminder to breathe and create. All while having some type of pride.🖤🆘 The CUZZINs would like to thank and credit: Production & Editing by Erase the Hate Music mix by Dj SOS Mindful meditation by Say Sukii Sound therapy by Stephalie Canto Appearances from "The Open Stage" by: James Klynn Marcano Saxx Epiphany Jay Mel de Miami
