  • who is his brother? and who gives a fuck if he sto;s the poems from his brother...obviously his pems needs to be heard and he just doing it...

  • I really don't care if a poet's vocabulary is not as vast as others', just so long as they manage to get their message across . Oveous manages to do exactly that. He consistantly delivers a good and positive message, and that sort of integrity is highly needed... so he should keep up the good work....

  • @djclue2 The comment about his diction and vocabulary get over yourself, poetry is art and art is what you feel. And what you feel has no set rules of how it's suppose to be expressed or shared with the world. He is educated FYI.

    Did you write a manual on how to be a poet that's on the best sellers list if so please give me the title I'd like to read it.

  • Why are people Criticizing him and speculating. Either you like it or you don't plain and simple if you don't like him then there is no need to even make a comment unless he asks your opinion which he hasn't.

  • he's dominican

  • Thank you Marissa for letting them know!!!! His poetry/music touches people adn it is sad for someone to try and attempt to criticize something that is so POWERFUL! Get a clue and listen to the magic!

  • umm clearly did not steal a poem from his brother...his styles consistent...check out his poem imagine....its about how his brother passed away....thanks

  • nah y'all, ove is the sh^t. hugely, HUGELY talented cat. check his performance at the apollo, his music coming out on yoruba records, and his appearance in spit - ove is what's up.

  • if he did that he wouldnt have exposed the fact he came across his books...Im a poet also and I deal with skepticism and that rankles me the most so please don't presume things like that it irks me on thing is his diction and vocab are not up to par and he doesnt speak with illustriousness....as a poet should but hey he may be nervous and subdued...

  • haha, thats exactly wat I was thinking
