[bosniangunner]

def poetry is legendary and the artists are the roots

[StoneCypher]

If you're looking for more of this guy's work, it's "Gemineye", not "Gemini". He spells it differently than the astrological symbol.

[Jallo22811]

Damn. He came to my school this year and I'll never forget it. I fell in love with his pieces so I contacted him and he agreed to come share his poetry with us. Experiencing his powerful words in person is unbelievable. And he has such a great personality on and off stage. You just gotta love Gemineye...

"Contrary to popular belief, the only concrete blocks you'll ever own are the ones that come with steel bars, or the ones we call tombstones. So I guess the only decision left for you to choose is whether the fabric in your casket should be red or blue"

[motownkrazy]

hbo but i am not sure if its coming back for an 8th season or not

[rodbeat]

it was on hbo but they took it off for some reason.

[rrodri88]

on hbo but its not new more but check out "brave new voices"

[per14843]

Usually Def Poetry jam comes on hbo at mid night .....this sounds like a commercial but check your local listing...many times they have repeats and If you have multiple hbo's then it will alter in time depending on which hbo you watch.

[swalker0116]

some one probly already told you this it doesnt come on any more it use to come on HBO

[MadeIn619]

This show isn't on the air anymore. They did 6 seasons (i believe) and they haven't done another season yet. I wish to god they would!!

[Choueeeey]

it used to be on HBO dont know what time, but i think this show doesnt air anymore, but i dont know i havent watched it in years

[isaiah856]

this show is freakin awesome!
