16 Bars: H.I.P. H.O.P. Poetry

Hip Hop Is Dead...

But True H.I.P. H.O.P. Lives

Tired of wack rappers who lack originality and lyrical substance? Fed up with corporate-controlled Hip Hop that has exploited the art form for its own selfish gain? I know I am.

My name is Naaya, and I'm a poet and author.

A while back I asked myself this question: If I were an MC, what would I do differently. I stepped out of my poetic comfort zone ad stepped into a one-woman cypher. From my cypher, I present to you 16 Bars: H.I.P. H.O.P. Poetry.

16 Bars is a celebration of Higher Infinite Power Healing Our People (H.I.P. H.O.P.). It's a collection of 16 bar poems that capture the essence Hip Hop's artistic and spiritual genius. I'm paying homage to the finer qualities of true Hip Hop: lyrical mastery, social-political consciousness, and spiritual uplift. It's also an unflinching commentary on the current state of Hip Hop.

If you love true Hip Hop and dope poetry, you'll enjoy 16 Bars. I like all my joints (of course, lol). But, here are a few of my favorites:
