SEKOU IS A VANGUARD ARTIST & INNOVATOR COMMITTED TO CREATING A MAINSTREAM INDUSTRY FOR SPOKEN WORD POETRY.

In 2019 SEKOU became the first spoken word poet to receive a GRAMMY nomination for “Best Spoken Word Album” in over 30 years. Since then, multiple poets have been nominated and won Grammys and, in 2022, the Recording Academy finally separated spoken word from audiobooks,
creating the inaugural “Best Spoken Word POETRYAlbum” category.

THE MUSIC MOVEMENT

This breathtakingly epic track is the second video from the GRAMMY® nominated album by Sekou and neo-classical orchestra, The String Theory, celebrating the impact of music in every aspect of our lives.

SEKOU ANDREWS & THE STRING THEORY

A genre-bending album of spoken word + symphony orchestra
“It is this power of music to move our individual units
And re-release ME …remixed by YOU …re-mastered as US
And we will know that OUR symphony is hotter than MY single
When God hears us turn on …and shouts
‘Ohhhhhhh! THAT’S MY SOOOOOOOOOOOONG!’”
