"Living Life with a Purpose, while dreaming of greatness!"
~ Wordsmith ~
In the words of Wordsmith the quote presented just above could not read with more motivation than what is delivered already.
I remember when I first signed up for twitter. It was in the Summer of 2009. One of the first local celebs to follow me was Wordsmith. The first thing I thought was, "how did he get verified?" Then I began to research him and that is when it became clear. This guy is a genius. Or perhaps just a man with a dream that he had plan to see through.

"WORDSMITH has called many places around the world home. The son of a former full-time Army Colonel meant home changed often; from New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Georgia, Delaware, Texas, Kansas to as far as Germany. Growing up with the always inevitable relocation, Word found rap to be a powerful constant. His knowledge stems from starvation as he would save his lunch money each week to buy classic tapes from Redman, Big L, Nas, Eric B. and Rakim, Jeru the Damaja, A tribe called Quest, Da Bush Babees, Krs One, Gangstarr, Das Efx, Public Enemy, Ice Cube, and his cousin Roc Marciano. Going away to school finally settled Word in one place, Maryland, first Morgan State with a full scholarship to play football, and finally Salisbury University where he continued football and received his B.A. in Theatre, Class of 2002.
Wordsmith, the man behind the lyrics. Being a hip-hop artist can really take a toll on a person. There are so many stereotypes that come along with performing in this genre. The "noise" that is classified as a musical theme for the "urban" communities. Over the years Word outgrew and overcame the negative stereotypes. With that he earned the opportunity of performing shows in not just clubs, but grade schools, colleges, theaters and festivals.

One thing people fail to realize about rap and hip hop lyrics is that not all tracks consist of sailor talk. Meaning, Wordsmith creates his music free from prophanity. Yet there are still messages to be received and through his outstanding style it is grasped by rock, pop, alternative and jazz music audiences.

This caused a cross-genre appeal. Growing fame brought a demand for a professsional presentation for a more diverse audience. This being why The Big Band Theory was formed. To provide a greater appearance and accumulate much larger and more sufficient bookings.

Wordsmith has toured throughout his career with stops in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, Houston, Las Vegas, Boston, Baltimore, Washington DC, Charlotte, Indianapolis, San Jose, Harrisburg, and overseas in London, England. He has both lectured and performed at various music conferences around the country sharing his great music and professional experience with other indie artists; conferences include SXSW, A3C, Mid Atlantic Music, Millennium Music, Launch and more. Wordsmith also visits grade schools to perform for students and promote anti-bullying messages.
