1. Rebecca Dupas… with a voice barely over a whisper she exudes grace, poise and wisdom when teaching from the stage. I gravitate to her work mainly because she has a knack for focusing on relationships and self-discovery/evaluation as a woman. Her writing is simple yet complicated and I can't wait to see what she does with topics outside of love, family and relationships.
2. LOVE the poet… She never stops growing innovatively and is constantly striving to channel her inner artist. Her recordings as well as her writing has definitely evolved over the years.
3. Taalam Acey… He's simply captivating. His subject matter runs a vast gamut but his writing is consistent in content and in delivery.
4. Unique the heaven sent… Although I'm just being introduced to her work, her writing and performance precedes her and she definitely didn't disappoint. Her words are powerful beyond measure and her cadence is melodic. She uses imagery in ways one wouldn't imagine and delivers it in a raw and unapologetic manner.
5. Gray… His concepts and writing style draws me in. He's a bold poet who isn't afraid of bringing forth his method and has been a great inspiration to me.
Honorable mention…
Quill Wordsmith… Many have slept on Quill in the realm of poetry and simply embrace him for his jazz melodies and syncopated scats but Quill has a very vivid and abstract way of writing that has simply inspired me beyond measure.
