POTEFICIAL by Port SAVant Welcome to Poteficial. It is a tribute to Southeast Georgia and aspects of Gullah Geechie culture. It is a reference to the city of Savannah which is also known as the Seaport/C-Port (locally pronounced Pote). Take “Pote” and combine it  with official and you have a term birthed for all things done at the highest of standards in the 912…POTEFICIAL! Poteficial represents the love, spirit, and culture of the area. On this project, the artist Port SAVant (Kush), embraces the soul of the city and paints pictures of hope with good times and truth. You will hear Southern 808 bass, marching bands, and jazz infused Hip Hop that contains witty, celebratory, and at times fierce lyrics in this offering. A SAVant is a very talented distinguished person in a particular field. In this case, Port SAVant distinguishes himself creatively based on his unique experience as a teacher, hip hop artist, and cultural enthusiast. This is his passion. It is his dedication. It is his contribution to life in the POTE and all cities with people and customs like it. This six song EP is the precursor to the full album, Poteficial, which will be released in Spring 2023. It is the goal of Port SAVant to give people art they can enjoy and find inspirational in their daily lives. We are currently saturated and over run by a huge amount of disposable music. However, this is more than a collection of songs. Poteficial is a movement and a shift to bring about greater focus and vision. Big thanks to all the dope musicians on this project. There is no Port SAVant without them. Enjoy, Share, and live life to the fullest. Peace All songs mixed and mastered by Leight Tha Great at Leightdogg Studios

It is said that music is the international language. I believe that music, in most cases has the tendency to bring us together in a way that normal circumstances in our society would not. In this "4 the Love of Music" series, I will sit down with many that I have encountered along the way in my music drenched life. We will talk about our extreme passion for, life experiences and how music has shaped our lives.   I hope that you can join us. . .  Right here on Tiff Talk.
