Kesha has many moving extensions and passions for spices and exercises them through exploratory genius. Carefully grounding her own boundaries within the Gullah tradition, Kesha constantly juxtaposes the flavors of her two worlds to evolve into an outstanding leader and social food game changer not afraid to include all aspects of the African Diaspora. Combining traditional cooking with a contemporary flare, her brilliance and ability to explore Asian, European and African spices within the stews of the southern culinary tradition challenges how southern cuisine is defined. Her constant juxtaposing of tradition and global influence is about Gullah sounds and stirs the aromas into her own artistic dishes while cultivating the power of the imagination in the kitchen. An unsung hero of our southern culinary society and a social food changer, her leadership is an example of the power of amalgamation; what is tradition and what is reality"
