spoken word poetry community, Kirk quickly became recognized as
one of his generation's most prolific spoken word artists. Affecting
analytical thinking towards change, he eloquently confronts society,
politics and community. With a full understanding of the power of
"passion and perseverance", he has used his poetry to challenge
audiences to obtain financial independence, spiritual stability
and personal success. Kirk's spoken word accomplishments include

Convention in New Orleans; a televised public service announcement
to stimulate NAACP youth membership and opening for a host of BET
and Def Jam Comics. His spoken word CD and book "The Unpopular Truth"
is a concentrated collection of some of his most dynamic works.
As one of the most sought after artists in the college and university
market, Kirk has motivated and inspired thousands with performances
of signature pieces from "The Unpopular Truth" that have included
"Forty Mill" ;"I've Come To Claim My Destiny" ;"I Believe" and "I
