Over the course of four days, starting Monday, June 11, “Verses & Flow” will begin filming its second season at the historical Belasco Theater in Downtown Los Angeles. Continuing the success of “Verses & Flow,” this season will be comprised of eight 30-‐minute weekly variety shows broadcast on the TV One network. Each episode will consist of a performance by an R&B music artist as well as featured poets.
Host Hardwick, a poet who moved to Los Angeles several years ago to hone his craft, commented, “Being brought on as the host of ‘Verses & Flow’ feels like I’m the prodigal poet returning home. As a poet who has been blessed with success as a film and TV actor, it’s been easy to forget how much success I have experienced as a poet and how prolific the journey has been. I commend Lexus for creating this platform.”
Season two of “Verses and Flow” is back and better than ever with American actor Omari Hardwick as the new host, a group of poets with refreshed talent, and a lineup of performances by artists like Luke James, Macy Gray, Elle Varner, and Musiq, to name a few.
