Poetry - Culture - Art - Liberty of the Human Spirit - Revolution - the Underground - Spoken Word - Expressive Fusion!

Walk in any poetry venue or ask any lover of spoken word and its poetic messengers and whisper Queen Sheba; the vibe changes, the atmosphere clings like static emotions and you'll know they have experienced royalty first hand. Thirty minutes with Queen Sheba on stage sharing her life, wisdom, pain and means of survival and life takes on a different excitement. She is an undeniable vessel of self-_expression, passion and versatility and her live performances authenticate the artistic fervor she brings to each and every microphone she blesses. Queen Sheba is committed, soulful, rebellious, ingenious, sexy, endearing, powerful and her outward beauty is birthed from within. Welcome to the dawn of an old age, reborn. The Queen has arrived.

Queen Sheba is a Spoken Word master poetess based in Norfolk, VA who has quickly rose to the height of buzz worthy voices in this resurgence of performance poetry. Her range of _expression extends from the urban pulse of hip-hop to the cerebral, timeless riffs of pure jazz. Her poetic themes delve into the brilliance of slave spirituals, commitment of revolution, awareness of societal issues, and seasoned experience of life and love. Her international presence sets her at the forefront of the poetical movement to elevate the art form of spoken word as an integral means of artistic, spiritual and cultural _expression.

Queen Sheba is the founder and CEO of Oya Xclusive a spoken word recording company in Norfolk, VA. Queen Sheba has successfully released two spoken word CDs, I Confess and The Message, respectively, and is due to release a highly anticipated third CD, The Truth, June 2003.

Queen Sheba has a worldwide following of poetry enthusiasts; presently hosting a very successful weekly venue and annual concerts that boast an estimated 1,000 audience members every show. She has established an admirable reputation among her peers, competing in poetry slams, performing at colleges and universities, concerts, poetry cafes and festivals across the country and overseas.

A Detroit native, now living in Norfolk, VA, Queen Sheba is one of the first internationally known performance poets from Virginia. Her following has surpassed the East Coast, spanned the United States, and provoked the emotions and intellect as far and wide as Canada, Europe and in July through August 2003 she will return to the original source of _expression through language and rhythm; Africa.
