They're always reformatting, rehashing, rebooting or bringing back things from the past all the time. Why don't they try relaunching Def Poetry Jam again? There's so many talented people out there that need just need that moment of exposure to get their art & words out there. We have to see these talent search contests, nonsensical reality shows, and things driven by scandal all the time. They tried bringing back Showtime at The Apollo but it just looked goofy & kind of like a low budget version of AGT (no disrespect) for the venue to be such a legendary & iconic place of our culture.

"Saturated Soil and Faulty Fertilizer.... you're Future Seeds will be just like you." not only used the planting your seed metaphor, but also went SS to FF and then FS with that alliteration... if that makes any sense.

This puts the likes of jay z ,snoop,kanye etc etc to absolute shame.They could never have enough credibility to share a stage with this man and look that audience in the eye

My poems sit on the page. I don't think this style is in me. I don't have enough fuse to burn so much righteous anger for such a long time. I watch these spoken word performances, though, because I can hear and see that if I can put an ounce of this energy into my own stuff, it may not just sit on the page.

I remember watching this the first night it premiered. Black Ice is one of the best spoken word poets EVER that performed on Def Poetry!
