Anyone here ever done "Slam Poetry"?
 

Because we're having a Slam Poetry contest at school on June 5th. We just saw a video on it today and it's pretty fuckin ill; picture rap, minus worrying about flow, plus being WAY more abstract, plus acting and minus having to rhyme every bar.

so like, talking? :) werd

LMAO

Almost.

Sounds wack....

you should just rap on sum shit and tell'em to slam poetry litterally

slam is ill as fuck, a buddy of mine's brother is on the canadian national slam team. amazing wordsmiths.

You can do whatever kind of poetry you want, I could rap for sure, it's just that this is SUPPOSED to be a different kind of thing (as far as I've seen), it doesn't have to be that way.

Just pull a Jay-Z..... bite some ill lyrics and just say "Im not a biter im a writer, when I say a big line im only biggin up my brother" replace big with any artist you use.. case solved...

well u got it backwards, its poetry slam here. and yea its everyday in chicago

my friend is like the best on the southside, i posted up her poetry a while back

no it SLAMING TALKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LET ME SEE A PREVIEW OF IT

I remember that one movie Slam. Shit was raw.

eh, i like rap more

rap is better that slam shit is moreless unryming poetry....
