This article fails to meet Wikipedia's WP:NMUSIC policy. It seems to have been created and largely edited by a WP:SPA which edits articles to do with Malik Al Nasir and has a highly promotional tone and it's largely a list of minor events attended.

Keep . Although spoken word poetry does not have huge mainstream presence, it is a very important art form. Although it looks like all the article contributions came from one source, that doesn't negate the fact that the sources are well listed, credible and noteworthy especially for those in the spoken word community. The inclusion of this subject will be a informative addition to the spoken word reference in wikipedia. Djhero2099 (talk) 17:48, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
