I knew it was coming. When I first started watching Def Poetry, I was waiting for the day Jill Scott would wreck the place! I can't wait.

I actually had the opportunity to watch a live taping of Def Poetry for free in NYC, but I didn't get to see the show with Jill Scott. However, I DID get the greatest opportunity to see and hear Buju Banton recite a beautiful poem. I had a lot of fun despite the fact that I had to stand.

I have never been so sad to not have HBO.  This is worse than missing SATC.

That poem was TIGHT. Did you hear her R. Kelly reference? LMAO
Jill's poem was OFF DA HOOK. I need her to put that in her book.

Soror Nikki Giovanni will be on Def Poetry tonight. It starts in 2 minutes. I had fallen off of watching it the past couple of weeks -- travelling and what not.
