Ab-Soul's Outro - Kendrick Lamar

The poetry in this piece is very powerful, especially at the end where the poet recites in a scenario that sounds like a camp fire. if you like jazz with a hip hop twist, you will love this piece.

Sh'maya @ Ronnie Scotts June '11

Don't be put off the by the quality of this vid. Sh'maya is a beautifully lyrical and musical poet. And with musicians Simon Wallace on Piano, Winston Clifford on Drums and Davide Mantovani on Bass, his work paints so many pictures....



He takes it a step further.

Pheonix Lyrics

From the ink of the strain
From the pain of the prayer
From the pain of the Word

The Word will rise
From the breath of the page
To the rains of the city
To the rains of the gasp
