Please tell us about “Truth N Jokes” and the impact you are making through the open mic for poets and comedians.

Tha Real: Thank you, so being that I have a history and love for both comedy and poetry, I decided to put together a show called Truth N Jokes. It’s an open mic with special guest performers and a chance for artists who are interested to earn some money by getting a percentage of the ticket sales. This way they not only build their support base but also get to practice their networking skills. The open mic currently takes place on the 3rd Wednesday of every month. We do it at The Only Black-Owned Comedy Club “Comedy In Harlem” opened by comedian Jamie Roberts.

What is the most meaningful poem you have written and why?

Tha Real: The most meaningful poem I ever wrote is would say is a tie between (They) and (A Message To My Sun). “They” because it’s the first poem I wrote. “A Message To My Sun” because it’s real lessons for my actual SUN Malik J. Williams

What is a quote that you live by?

Tha Real: It’s not what you call me, it’s what I answer to.

What does the rest of the year look like for you?

Tha Real: The rest of the year is building, like a lot of people I’m still bouncing back from the world shutting down. So we are building “ Truth N Jokes” to be all it can be for up-and-coming artists. I’m also working on a poetry slam league and finally putting this film degree to work with a web series.
