This melody brings back a memory as i open my eyes quiet are the skies my mornings breathe in tune A journal of songs that lift my spirit and open my heart. Singing them on repeat. From Darija to Mandarin, join me in singing along to my favorite tracks—both those with lyrics and the instrumental ones.

Too Poetic

Too Poetic

Too Poetic has been played on NTS shows including Ted Draws, with I Will Remember You first played on 16 January 2018.

Too Poetic was a hiphop group that was originally comprised by two(Too) DJ's - DJ Capitcal K aka Kaos and DJ Woody Wood and one MC(Poetic). Woody Wood left the group to help his wife raise their new born child. "that's minus one but there's still Too". Before Woody left they dropped the legendary classic single God Made Me Funky/Political Terror 12inch which had been brought to the late great, Paul 'C' McKasty for the final mix. They also released a music video for God Made Me Funky. The single was very well received.

After Woody left, they recorded a full album by the end of '89. Tommy Boy said the now duo were not marketable like other hiphop acts on the label and told the group that they would shelf the album for a year before giving it another chance. Kaos and Poetic decided to get out of their contract thinking the album would probably be outdated by the time, if ever it's released. Tommy Boy released them from their contact. Poetic formed Gravediggaz with other artists that Tommy Boy had screwed over. Poetics attitude had changed which is certainly understandable considering the circumstances surrounding his first steps into the industry. The positivity that Poetic excelled at was put toward deeper and darker type of lyrics which he also excelled at but Too Poetic could be no more unfortunately.

The unreleased album 'Droppin' Signals' was released free on the internet in 2009 but has since been asked to be taken down by Poetics family.
