    True Blood’s Nelsan Ellis Does Spoken Word On Malachi’s New Single!

    Nelsan Ellis is no one trick pony. The rising star who flawlessly captures the essence of Bon Temps Queen Bee, Lafayette, on HBO’s True Blood, also has a passion for the spoken word. Nelsan makes his debut on up and coming rapper Malachi’s mix tape with a flow reminiscent of the spirit of the Last Poets.

    The song has a throwback B-Boy 80′s dance feel to it with a dramatic monologue at the end recited by Nelsan Ellis in which he channels a schizophrenic homeless man who shares his views on what the world needs. Dramatic…but hey they’re artist what can I say? LOL!
