Spoken Word
 
Ever since I first saw Medusa & Arwen perform spoken word a few years back, I have been hooked. The rawness takes me on a rollercoaster of emotions, and often leaves me speechless.

Thanks to the wonderful world of the internet, we have access to hundreds of different styles and topics of spoken word, and I thought that we could share our favorite ones here.

Great thread Pinky!!!
 
I'm with you Pinky. I love spoken word weather public or private confessions, it moves me as well. La Bruja is one of my favorites. I love the way she can speak the truth..........see where she takes it, she's deep.

"WTC" La Bruja

Scratch and Dent Dreams
 
My favorite....



I entered a slam poetry competition a few months back, and even though I came in second place the experience was worth a million smiles. Spoken word is awesome!

Christopher Michael - I saw this guy perform at the 2006 International Poetry Slam. He got 2nd place.





I haven't seen any more of his stuff since then.

I heart Alvin Lau.

He was at the 2006 and 2007 International Poetry Slams in Austin, but I don't remember where he ended up placing in either.



This one's fun:
