WordSlam IV Presents Bantu & Band
Poetry Slam & Concert
The success story of WordSlam continues with its fourth edition including new features: As in the last three editions, WordSlam IV will start offering a platform for notable spoken word artists from all over Nigeria and will culminate in a concert of German-Nigerian musician Ade Bantu and his band. This edition of the poetry slam reaches out to the youth; the results of a workshop with secondary schools, conducted by Bantu himself, will be presented along other performances by poets, lyricists and modern griots. Ade Bantu’s vibes – a mixture of hip-hop, reggae and afro-funk which he calls “the sound of fufu” - will turn what started as a poetry performance into an exciting live concert in the evening. We invite you to explore the transitions between spoken and sung words and to be part of a unique rhythmic experience.
