Poetry slam winner Omar Musa

Cheers for everyone's comments- interesting reading people's observations on slam vs. rap etc.This was many years ago when I had only just got into slam poetry and was learning about the form, having been solely an MC before that. Check out my more recent work for a more accurate representation of what I'm about. Respect, Omar

Slam Poetry is more monologue sounding, like a speech with flow, alliteration and occasional rhymes; hence the term SPOKEN WORD. If the focus is all on the tempo and having stanzas with equal syllables, then it's RAP (coughthisguycough)

Slam means competition you dorks, so yes this is a poem he wrote for the Poetry SLAM..therefore it's slam poetry. Go Omar!!

What is wrong with you guys!!

Of course this is SLAM Poetry.

Yeah there is a difference between Rap and Slam and its obvious YOU dont know what it is.

[sgblisss]

[DustyLeviCalcote17]

This..is not slam poetry. People think they can just rap without music and call it slam. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE!
