About Me |
|
| Hello, my name is Jo Ann Gray. I write and perform "Joetry". So, what is "Joetry"? Simply put...the term derives from merging my first name with the word: poetry. Jo Ann Gray is the artist. “Joetry” is the mode of expression. Therefore, I define "Joetry" as spoken word with an R&B twist. You feel me? When I embarked upon this project my idea was to create relationship music by writing sentiments that women would appreciate being spoken and that men could take to heart. I believed there was a shortage of positive and loving relationship music, so I set out to fill that void, and I believe I've accomplished that. Many of the truly loving and sexy ballads were written and performed by men that spoke to women. So, I decided that “Joetry” would speak of love and loving relationships from a female perspective to men. “Joetry” is designed to stimulate moods that set the tone for love. I write, arrange and recite each “joem” to original music created by awesome producers. My goal is to send out good vibrations that make people feel good and happy about being in love and being alive. HOW DO YOU EXPERIENCE "JOETRY"? Well, it's easy as 1,2,3: 1. OPEN YOUR MIND 2. CLOSE YOUR EYES 3. FEEL SOMETHING I welcome you, one and all to experience "Joetry" mood music for grown folks. What I do is fresh and exciting, and I believe you'll like it. Matter of fact, I guarantee it. Allow me to blow into your ear and feed your mind this verbal soul food. Stick around and fix yourself a plate, but don't leave until you're full.
