In partnership with Philly's own Philly Service Announcement (PSA) Podcast, Master Griot Publishing launches its new multi-media series, GRIO.LIFE about those culture keepers who live that griot life! Our debut guest is the one and only Griot Soul Records recording artist E The Poet-Emcee.
Depending on where you encounter him, E the poet-emcee is either an MC with powerfully poetic lyricism or a performance poet with a masterful MC presence. E the poet-emcee delivers social commentary with streetwise swagger. "E" is a successful social entrepreneur, an educator, a husband, a community stakeholder, a modern-day griot, musician, producer, hustler of culture who does it all with a purpose. A by-product of Hip Hop's Golden Era blending Emcee rhythm with Poetic free verse creating a style all his own, he's also a staunch active advocate for the healthy growth and sustainability of our communities of color!
Penetrating brands he has created include Hustler of Culture, non-profit Griots at Work, and spoken word label Griot Soul Records. Artists are the storytellers and keepers of our culture.
