Spoken Word is smooth and conscious with poetic lyrics that control the crowd every time she embraces them with her presence.

Lyricist, Songwriter, and Poet, Spoken Word is not an amateur when it comes to Hip Hop music. She’s entering the industry with musical compositions that can only be defined and understood by the real Hip Hop culture. Many say that her lyrics is none other than spoken word mixed with hot tracks that leave heads bopping as they anticipate the sounds of the next song. Her beats are so New York City streets that those around her can’t help but listen because it is a definite reminder of what Hip Hop should be. Spoken Word has been performing since the age of 12. All the way from the school's loud speaker to overcrowded venues that wait in expectancy for real Hip Hop music.
“What I love about Hip Hop is that it is soulful to me. Lyrics in many underground rap songs have taught me a lot about life, love, and mental prosperity. Many people choose to ignore what underground Hip Hop artists have to say because maybe they feel as if they focus too much on reality. I say that in the current condition that the world is in, why not listen”. Spoken Word

In addition to her musical talents, Spoken Word has written several Screenplays and stage plays. She is an activist for females in ethnic communities. She’s dedicated to making sure that the younger generation use their time and talents wisely as they deal with the hardships that they face with everyday challenges.

“Through my music I hope to reach those within the community that others have a hard time reaching. I don’t believe in throwing people away. Who knows how a person’s life can turn out if we sometimes put ourself aside and help someone else.” Spoken Word

Bob Marley-The Story Behind the Music


During the 1970’s and 1980’s, many African Americans relished the music of Bob Marley of Jamaica (1945-1981), embraced his Rastafarian beliefs, and grew dreadlocks like those he wore. Today, Marley enjoys virtually the same heroic stature in the black Diaspora as Martin Luther Ki… Continue

Destructing the Myth of the Booty (The Saartje Project)


The weekend of July 10, 2009 at the Warehouse Main Stage in Washington, DC, The Capital Fringe Fest sponsored a play entitled “Destructing the Myth of the Booty”. The play tells the story of Saartje Baartman, a young slave girl from Africa that was displayed in a cage around town to show off her buttocks to perverted white men that seemed to be amazed by the size of her ass.

Heron Gibran Bio

Heron Gibran is a bit of an enigma. A true renaissance man. It hardly seems fair to call him a rapper. The word isn’t large enough. Does not encapsulate him. If you talked to him for more than five minutes about hip-hip, the state of affairs in the music industry, politics, religion, whatever…you’d understand. Rapper does not do him justice. While he considers himself a Washingtonian, Heron was actually born in the Bronx, New York. Around the same time he was born, a new street culture was emerging. As he grew, hip-hop grew. As hip-hop expanded, traveled, became more sophisticated, international…so did he. Lately, he has been working closely with long-time friend and colleague, Asheru (creator of the Boondocks theme song). Together they have performed all over the nation’s capital. Along with producer/emcee Aychell, they formed the hip-hop super-group, Black Lincolns, and released the breakthrough single “The Hustle”. Heron has also contributed music to the forthcoming Boondocks soundtrack. Over the years he has released several solo projects, the most recent being The Amnezia Haze EP. This underground classic gem is an eclectic collection of tracks, some of which were recorded overseas in Amsterdam. It also features “By Any Means” and “Dance With Me”, both produced by DJ Khalil of California’s Self-Scientific, who has also produced for The Game and Jay-Z. So…between globetrotting and helping to vitalize the DC hip hop scene and teaching graphic design to inner-city children with special needs, Heron Gibran simply defies categorization. He is anomaly in a musical landscape where simplicity rules. But he’s creating his own rules, and making coverts one handful at a time along the way.
