!! OMG, brother grimm: Mykki Blanco on his Poetic Roots !!
It runs true that a gender-exploratory rapper such as Mykki Blanco would have his/her feet heeled in poetry and performance art roots.
Mykki spoke to dazed about her/his early ventures into performance art [through the Paint Unconsciousness collective], an fetal love of 'fringe biographies' [Bette Midler, Oscar Wilde], and his early ventures into poetry which s/he describes as "Brothers Grimm turned on it's head".
You can read her/his interview HERE, and see one of Mykki's earlier backing-tracked poetry readings of 'From the Silence of Duchamp to Noise of Boys' HERE.
