Black Root, an actor, poet, and lyricist is an avid student of the Hip-Hop culture who always steps on stage with the energy necessary to move the crowd, and a swagger to know that he can do so. He has thus far established himself in the mid-atlantic region as a talented Emcee and Spoken word artist. In his travels, he has worked with the Kelly Bell Band(Reincarnated 2007, track 8), Salim & the Music Makers, Wendel Patrick, LOVE the poet, & the 5th L to name a few. Root has also emerged victorious in several poetry slams including a couple @ SLAMICIDE...oh yea! One-half of the lyrical duo Axiom, Root and Wordslave provide an honest, soulful versatility that helps set them apart from other Hip-Hop groups. Black Root’s focus is to provide balance in the world of Hip Hop which has become highly commercialized, and as a result has seemingly lost sight of some of the important aspects such as quality of content and skill.
