Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, I was surrounded by jazz from a very early age. Inspired by the Book of Proverbs in The Bible, I got my start writing positive lyrics more than 22 years ago, and in that time, I have gradually honed my skills and worked to eke out a style that is uniquely my own. In 2004, I launched my own record label, and shortly after I was going to sign my first artist, Katrina hit, setting me back in a big way. I was homeless, and I was a lost. I still had, however my entrepreneurial spirit and my passion for art.

The Poetry King is a nickname I picked up when I was younger, and as a music producer, singwriter, poet, and DJ, I am now known as Mr. Poetry King and DJ Poetry King. I work in training, marketing, promotion, and e-commerce, striving to gift the world with positive vibes and good times. Whenever I see that my work has done something to lift up someone’s spirits, I feel like I have done the right thing.
