Subject: WORD UP
King Olulu,
Well done. Word up was fantabulous. The little kid called
increase has actually increased my interest in spoken word poetry. Never been
to an event so rich in talent before. Torpedo was absolutely amazing and I like
the fact that he didn't use a microphone, it shows that he's a natural on
stage. "What do you wear" was stunning. I don't know what the name of
the lady that delivered it is called but damn, she was good. I have the voice
of Oyinkansola stuck in my head. Blessed is he who end up with her because to
listen to that voice every morning will be heaven. Also, the lady that
performed with Oyinkan is a great story teller and performer. The duo took me
to a new level. I just have a few requests, Can I book 3 tickets in advance for
the next show since we'll now have to pay (It's definitely worth paying for).
Secondly, Can I order for the DVD in advance too, again 3 copies. Thirdly, Is
it possible that we have all the poems performed on the word up website. And
finally, could you keep me updated on spoken word events around Lagos
especially if Oyinkansola and the rest of the people that left me in awe will
be present.
Grey Project couldn't be part of this one but I'll sell
Word up to her the next time I see her. It's definitely a project I think
she'll like to be part of.
Have a great week and thanks for taking us all on a
journey into WORDS.
Regards,
