Poet Edmund Okocha bka Ink stains, born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I grew up in the Germantown area and parts of Lagos Nigeria. I'm the third of five children.
Heavily influenced by hip hop and currently an advocate of two of its vocal outlets-- rap and spoken word. My inspiration to write stems from the likes of Saul Williams, Black Ice, Tupac Shakur, Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, Nikki Giovanni, Sunni Patterson, Nas, and a list of countless un-named. Also an advocate for positive change, i write with the sole purpose of reviving the heart beat of a generation gone numb. I'd like for my words to speak with the clarity of today's times, to poke holes in the darkest night till it starts leaking sunshine and re-define the design of the school of thought that we currently confine our minds in, like the disturbing addiction to guns and chalk lines.THAT WAS JUST A FRAGMENT OF WHAT I'M ABOUT SO IF YOU'RE NOT IN UNISON WITH MY TRAIN OF THOUGHT, THEN HAVE A SAFE TRIP BACK TO YOUR MIND STATE.
