  • The more TedTalks (TedX, TedWomen, TedMed, etc.) that I watch, the more disappointed I become with the so-called leaders of industry. They seem to constantly rehash each others' ideas with slightly different spins or apparently conflicting opinions, despite the fact that in order to achieve what they have achieved, they stand on the shoulders of giants. Without trust funds, none of these people would have done anything with their lives. Also, watch "Foolish" starring Eddie Griffin.

  • More people need to know about you. Plain and simple. It's sad that most don't.

  • A fucking poet, really enjoyed him!

  • Sekuo, great presentation that only a conscious mind could appreciate. Your presentation probably was 'over-the-head' of some of the consciously dead. Poetry is alive! - embedded in our culture

  • Fail? Painful?? I don’t get it, he did anything but fail. I was at TEDMED and he masterfully captured the themes of all the speakers there in a spokenword poem … “do more than be well, do good.” That’s hot! He got called back for an encore at the end with a standing O. Ppl were crying. And if you check out his website (thesekoueffect), he’s clearly doing alright. Respected organizations pay him to inspire ppl at meetings- Kraft, global green, ebay, mayo clinic. Maybe you had to be there.

  • Huh?

  • @crusadersoldier His performance was soulful and hilarious and confusing and painful to watch a black man fail like that.

  • Wow, I would't pay him to preform at my presentations. But his performace in this video is impressive
