Def Poetry Jam Presented by Country of origin United States Original language(s) English Production Producer(s) Release Original network Original release 2002 – 2007 External links Website Russell Simmons presents Def Poetry, better known as simply Def Poetry Jam or Def Poetry, was a television series hosted by and airing on between 2002 and 2007. The series features performances by established and up-and-coming spoken word poets. Performances also include special appearances by well-known actors and musicians, as well as occasional performances by Mos Def himself.
Co-created by, Deborah Pointer, and, the show is a of the popular which began airing on HBO in the 90's. As with Def Comedy, Simmons appears at the end of every episode to thank the audience. The series included historical legendary poets such as, The Last Poets, Nikki Giovanni, and Sonya Sanchez.
It also featured poets, Jessica Care-Moore and Lemon. Though technically not a, Def Poetry has become heavily associated with the movement, and utilizes many of 's best known poets, including National Poetry Slam champions such as, and, among others. Even poets who are critical of the, such as, have acknowledged slam's influence on the show. In a 2005 interview, Hall was quoted as saying: It's true that I was on Def Poetry even though I've never slammed. I'm probably the only person to be on there who hasn't slammed. And I think most people on Def Poetry have won slams or done well in slams. And, all of them, except the special guest stars, the celebrities, are writing slam poems and performing slam poems on Def Poetry, so to me, Def Poetry is still extremely slam-informed, and I think it will probably always be.
What they say about Def Poetry is that it wants to bring an urban feel. And to me, they don't mean black or Latino, or non-white. What they really mean is, a rhythm of poetry that comes out of the, that came out of the slams.
In a 2005 interview, who founded the 's and appeared on Season 4 of the show, applauded Def Poetry, noting: I'm real happy poetry is on television. My hat is off to Russell Simmons, who has found a way to get poems on HBO in a way that feeds his own business. It gives him the back credentials for his hip-hop label, and at the same time he's magnanimous towards the art of poetry, giving us a place like that.
It's a great, great moment, just as Def Poetry Jam on Broadway was a great moment, too. Not since 's has a poem like that been on the stage. However, the founder of the Poetry Slam movement, is more critical of the program. Smith decries the intense commercialization of the poetry slam, and refers to Def Poetry as 'an exploitive entertainment program that diminished the value and aesthetic of performance poetry.' In November 2002, a live stage production, Russell Simmons Def Poetry Jam, opened on. Directed by, the show featured poets, and Steve Coleman. The show ran on Broadway until May 2003, and won a 2003 for Best Special Theatrical Event.
The show subsequently toured both nationally and internationally. Def Poetry premiered on HBO in 2002 and the latest season to air (Season 6) premiered in February 2007.
As of summer 2008, there has been no word about the possibility of a Season 7. Starting in 2008, producers of Def Poetry (including Simmons, and ) developed and broadcast the HBO poetry show, which is stylistically similar to Def Poetry, with teenage poets competing and backstage scenes. Contents.
