"Verse - The Art of Rhyming" Poetry Society fellowship 26/7/11

On Tuesday July 26, 2011, the Poetry Society of Jamaica partnered with Manifesto Jamaica to present "Verse - The Art of Rhyming" featuring SHAQ The MC, Kabaka Pyramid and Five Steez. I-Nation was on location sharing knowledge, Ibo Provided vege-sip, Clean Fuel Technology had refreshments and ManifestoJA had a book drive throughout the night.

The evening highlighted the connection between poetry and hip hop and excerpts of the Featured Work, Saul Williams' "Dead Emcee Scrolls - The Lost Teachings of Hip Hop" were shared. It was a night filled with lyricism and thought-provoking content, and a thick, very responsive audience.




"Energy, rich lyricism, boldness, presence...all present in the works of Five Steez,SHAQ The MC & Kabaka Pyramid. The poetry is alive and active".
