Join us for an amazing night of artistry as our Top 10 poets give it their all, performing original pieces, competing for a host of prizes and the title of Motown MIC: The Spoken Word Competition- Artist of the Year! We're celebrating 10yrs of Motown MIC! This will definitely be an evening you don't want to miss! Motown MIC: The Spoken Word was created to pay homage to Motown Records’ Black Forum Label— a Motown spoken word label created by Berry Gordy and the Motown Corporation in the ‘70s as a venue for Black expression and education. The label served to capture the voices of African American poets and orators such as Langston Hughes, Stokely Carmichael, Elaine Brown, Ossie Davis and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose moving and inspirational “I Have A Dream” speech was recorded by the label. As Motown revolutionized the music industry, its Black Forum Label documented the social consciousness of a generation— Motown MIC: The Spoken Word is a continuation of that rich legacy. Motown MIC is proudly supported by Sony Music, The Skillman Foundation, Michigan Arts & Culture Council, Broadside Lotus Press, DTE Foundation, The Elaine Stern Foundation, Erb Family Foundation, The Kresge Foundation and Hudson Webber Foundation.
