Founder of Southern Laced and the Creative Arts Awards

“SOUTHERN Laced basically describes who I am. I have lived in Mississippi all of my life. I grew up in the country on a dirt road. As a child, I fell asleep to the beat from a local juke joint. My experiences in life, the way I talk and my demeanor are all SOUTHERN Laced.” – Kelly Stone
