We announced the 1st POETRY/SPOKENWORD REDCARPET in Nigeria, if not in AFRICA, last month. But it did not hold because of an unfortunate situation beyond our control.
Indeed, 29th edition of Poetry Potter was voted as a successful event by our Guest Artistes: El Nukoya and Lilian Amah, and unanimously by our distinguish Members of the House. It’s on this thrust that we intend to build a solid foundation, and this month which marks the 30th edition of the event, will be the beginning of the three months RedCarpet event for Poets and Spokenword artistes in Nigeria and Africa.
This in an initiative of Kowry Kreations Media, which attempts to spur the business of poetry/spokenword in the country and Africa. And as well make the genre as lucrative (business wise) as its sister genre, music. We hope introducing some social elements into the promotion of poetry will push it a bit forward from its current point. And we promise to do this consistently with integrity.
With our Partners: Capricorn Tents&More and HEV Pictures/Snap, Poetry Potter is aiming at its peak. Sage Has.son, the ace spokenword artiste will be around and his new CD will be on sale.
FUNLOLA AOFIYEBI - the winner of Celebrity Takes 2/Actress
PLUS ONE - a new hip-hop group of three young and creative minds.
FELYNE - a Nigerian female rap artiste based in the US.
