Have you ever wondered what someone was listening to while walking past them on the street. Maybe behind that mean mug is praise and worship music dancing with that person’s soul. Or maybe intertwined with that light step is the relaxing melodies of heavy metal.
Back when converting YouTube videos to MP3’s was the status quo, if you stopped me, one of the things you’d likely hear is a poet performing at Def Poetry Jam.
Before streaming services overwhelmed us with choices of what to watch, you could find me on YouTube. One of my favorite past times was spoken word. Shihan’s This Type Love captivated the romantic in me. Hoping and praying one day someone would feel this way about me. J Ivy’s I Need to Write spoke to the journal keeping playwriting minor I was. Woman to Woman by Thea Monyee is just badass response from a woman who though she was getting one over on her.
Checkout my faves.
