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.

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! |

Steve Connell is UH-mazing. He and my cousin are the best of friends...and when I was visiting family in LA a number of years ago, I went to an event he was performing in.
He Blew.Me.Away. He performs alot with Sekou - also amazing.

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: |
