Summary: Now in its 9th year, the annual youth poetry festival and slam known as Brand New Voices kicks off tonight with a very special opening ceremony performance by the legendary Last Poets. This Harlem collective laid the groundwork for both slam poetry and hip hop back in the 70s and its a great treat to hear them perform. Providing the background soundrack is FreeNYC favorite DJ Raedawn aka Crunk Tesla. Check the calendar for week long festival events including many free slams.
