Experience spoken word, keynote talks, and live performances that bring stories to life.
From open mics to main stages, every performance carries the same voice — unfiltered, unafraid, and built to move a room. Here’s where you can watch him do it.
Solo Performances
Just Ree, a mic, and words that don’t hold back — the rawest form of his craft, one voice at a time.
Ree unpacks identity and self-acceptance in his Ted talk, using his book African Pride (as well as his peculiar first name) as the springboard.
On the first-ever POAI spoken word headline show, Ree performs his Journeyman set. Equally mesmeric and gut-wrenchingly honest, the performance sums up his lived experience and worldview up to that point.
A man on the run…with a son to address and a society to confront. The second installment of Let Our Words Speak sees Ree take on the role of an estranged father writing to his son in a charged performance set that functions as a salvo and a manifesto for expression.
Inspired by the series “Moon Knight”, Ree The Wordsmith takes on three distinct personalities, anchored by the Descartes quote “Cogito, ergo sum” (I think, therefore I am). An engrossing exploration of trauma, morality and the complexity behind every individual.
With Poets on an Island
Alongside his fellow poets in Poet on an Island, Ree brings collective voices together — where solo truth becomes shared rhythm.
Set in a post-pandemic world that demonizes expression, “Post Fear” follows a few interconnected stories; a father on the run writing to his son who grows up to become the defense lawyer that fights for his father’s freedom, a grieving wife and mother struggling to be present for her young daughter as she comes to grips with loss, and a madman grappling with reality and an intense desire to rebel.
