About the features:
Sola Kush (Sọ́lá Kúṣ in Yorùbá) is a decorated Nigerian-American spoken word artist, orator, researcher, and mentor hailing from northern New Jersey. Alongside her academic pursuits in mechanical engineering and global economic development, she has won numerous honors and awards from local and national poetry slam competitions, talent shows, oratorical contests, and artist showcases, including her most recent first place win at the 2024 Southern Fried Poetry Slam individual competition where she represented the legendary Nuyorican Poets Cafe. Sola’s love of the stage has led her to organizing poetry workshops in Silicon Valley, performing at Google and TiVo, and opening for Wale, Kehlani, and Issa Rae’s award-winning series premier of the HBO show Insecure, among other opportunities. In January 2024, she decided to stop “shoulda coulda” wondering what her life as a poet looks like, and is currently committing to her art on one of her most wild and fulfilling journeys thus far.
