About this blog!


WORDS SPOKEN




This blog is dedicated to the spoken word.  There is still no clear definition for what spoken word actually is but according to "SpokenOak" a website dedicated to spoken word, they define it as" a term adopted by academia (college circles) in the early 80's to recognize a wave of new word-based performance art that came springing out of the Postmodern Art Movement." 

Since then this new art form can be found in many coffe shops, clubs, colleges, even churches. On this blog you will find my favorite spoken word youtube clips and friends of mine doing what they love "spoken word".
 I hope you enjoy this blog and if you are interested in getting you work featured here feel free to contact me.
 Much love.
