NGTVZRO

NGTVZRO, a young unspoken word artist, activist and educator, is a firm practitioner of the universal law of love, and exemplifies the edicts of truth, sincerity and enlightenment in his hybridized poetic-singing-rapping style. Called ‘Z’ or ‘ZRO’ for short, he believes that art is not a skill, but rather a reflection of the soul, and encourages others to beautify their souls that their actions and expressions can inspire others to be extraordinary. Armed with a guitar and powerful intellect, he is relentlessness crafted into human form.

High Museum of Art.

Knowing the art is the catalyst for revolutionary thought and transformative change, ZRO’s presence in the academic arena is best reflected in his advisory capacity for the intercollegiate artistic society Ill Lyterati, his work with the youth in non-profits such as the Boys and Girls Club, his work with several Atlanta Public Schools in understanding and producing literature, and his work with the Juvenile Courts of Dekalb to aiding young people obtain their GEDs, especially as it pertains to the challenges of mathematics. Though ZRO was a Public Relations and Speech/Rhetoric major when he attended college, he carried a Physics scholarship, whilst simultaneously holding the position of Assistant Editor at Atlanta Metropolitan.

Having recently released his premier poetry and hip-hop anthology, ‘Zero Divided By Zero Equals’ and his poetry and short story compendium, ‘I Wrote This Because I Love Her’, ZRO has steadily toured a variety of locales throughout Atlanta and the southeast. Perhaps most notably, he graced The High Museum of Art, in which he freestyled/improved imaginative verses using words generated from an audience of some 300 individuals, elevating the craft of freestyling to the aesthetic level of Atlanta Opera and Atlanta Ballet, who were also on the docket. Appearing with Soul Food Cypher (SFC) at the High’s ‘Culture Shock’ experience, he and the SFC family headlined the respected museum’s event. Subtly, this made history, for it is the first time hip-hop has graced inside of the High Museum, which is the most well-funded institution of art in the southeast region.

spiritual accuracy in creative works, and

of three entities—storytelling,

poetry and hip-hop. It is difficult to

tell where a story begins and a series of

rhymes ends.

In the theater production, RIMSHOT: The Urban

Musical, ZRO plays the role of an insidious enforcer,

disillusioned with the world and thirsty for power. The

production, which champions the cause of awareness in the

arena of human trafficking, is a parallel of the

exploitative music industry and the modern slavery of

human trafficking.

In this production, not only does ZRO star in a principal

role, he is also a scriptwriter, and a writer for the marketing

materials.

RIMSHOT: The Urban Musical has made rounds in multiple

states, and the executive producer, Angela Carswell, has

even spoken before state legislators on the topic of the topic

of said systematic exploitation.
