From murals to music, from poetry slams to theatre, from beats to rhymes, emcee, poet, keyboardist, and producer Davu Flint is a multidisciplinary artist constantly searching for new ways of expression. Born In Pittsburgh, the Philadelphia resident has performed his original brand of poetry and hip-hop throughout the U.S. and abroad, appearing at CBGB's, The Andy Warhol Museum, The Nuyorican Poets Cafe, the Toronto International Poetry Slam, as well as San Francisco, London and South Africa. He has shared stages with Talib Kweli, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Dudley Perkins, Saul Williams, Ursula Rucker, Camp Lo, Wiz Khalifa, J*Davey, Thundercat, Blu, and the Adrian Younge Black Dynamite Sound Orchestra among others. As a poet and journalist, he's interviewed KRS One and has been anthologized in "Bum Rush the Page: A Def Poetry Jam" and the afrofuturtist anthology Black Futurists Speak. On his latest record, The Life and Times, Davu handles the production duties on an 13 song album that is his most expressive to date. Backed by his own revolving band of gypsies, the live ensemble The Left Rights, Davu's live shows swing from soul to rock to hip-hop to broken beat. Read more on Last.fm.
