Artist statement
"I do spoken word because it's a form of art that allows me think out loud.
It's like therapy for me ...because som e of the things I write about are personal. ..and writing them down helps me deal with those things.
Sometimes it's like keeping a coded diary...
I do it also to entertain. ...I think my pieces usually have a lot of rhymes in them. I also try to do word play and a little alliteration here and there . At the same time I try to always send a message across anytime I write a piece". Philipa Fosu Gyamfi (2017)
