Hi My name is Kimbini and I will be in Sweden participating in a Youth Exchange Program under the Swedish organisation Forum Syd. I will be representing a young people's organisation from Zimbabwe called Budding Writers Association, which aims to support young aspiring artists in Zimbabwe. I am a poet coming from Southern Africa and most of all Zimbabwe; I perform what is commonly known as Dub Poetry. Dub poetry is a fusion of hard poetry and music. Despite the type of music, the poet can use whatever type that can well with presented. I like to fuse my poetry with traditional African music and sometimes I do my own individual compositions of music to accompany my poetry. There is also the Acapella type of poetry that I also perform this a solo recital with no accompaniment and is also quite a powerful media. |
