They call me Ms. Wise, a 23 year old poet/lyricist born in the city of Camden, New Jersey. I, Ms. Wise, aka Alyesha, began writing at the tender age of 11 and eventually developed a passion 4 this thing called poetry. Lately, I've been on a mission 2 do 1 thing and that's 2 change the condition of my people....In my heart, I believe it's possible; but I recognize that as much as I'm about talking it, I have 2 be about walking it...and that's exactly what I plan 2 do, as long as I have a million marching with me.
I will 4ever perform with a passion that comes from deep within, because my PRIMARY PASSION is 4 the YOUTH....and 4 MY PEOPLE. Having experienced first-hand trials and tribulations, I'm able 2 recite every word so that atleast 1 person in the audience, believes each word which I'm reciting....is their own....
Currently, I'm performing mainly throughout the Philadelphia & Baltimore areas and just about everywhere beyond. TO BOOK ME AT AN EVENT OR VENUE NEAR YOU, SIMPLY SEND AN E-MAIL:
