NGTVZRO, a young unspoken word artist, activist and educator, is a firm practitioner of the universal law of love, and exemplifies the edicts of truth, sincerity and enlightenment in his hybridized poetic-singing-rapping style. Called ‘Z’ or ‘ZRO’ for short, he believes that art is not a skill, but rather a reflection of the soul, and encourages others to beautify their souls that their actions and expressions can inspire others to be extraordinary.

Knowing the art is the catalyst for revolutionary thought and transformative change, ZRO’s presence in the academic arena is best reflected in his advisory capacity for the intercollegiate artistic society Ill Lyterati, his work with the youth in non-profits such as the Boys and Girls Club, his work with several Atlanta high schools in understanding and producing literature, and his work with the juvenile courts of Atlanta to aiding young people obtain their GEDs, especially as it pertains to the challenges of mathematics. Though ZRO was a Public Relations and Speech/Rhetoric major when he attended college, he carried a Physics scholarship, whilst simultaneously holding the position of Assistant Editor.

Having recently released his premier poetry and hip-hop anthology, ‘Zero Divided By Zero Equals’, ZRO has steadily toured a variety of locales throughout Atlanta and the southeast, most notably, The High Museum of Art, in which he freestyled/improved imaginative verses using words generated from an audience of some 300 individuals, elevating the craft of freestyling to the aesthetic level of Atlanta Opera and Atlanta Ballet, who were also on the docket. Appearing with Soul Food Cypher (SFC) at the High’s ‘Culture Shock’ experience, he and the SFC family headlined the respected museum’s event. Subtly, this made history, for it is the first time hip-hop has graced inside of the High, the most well-funded institution of art in Georgia.

A veteran writer with a background in imaginative and technical

writing, ZRO serves as the Creative Director of Indivisible

Integers and the Communications Director of Kingdom

Fortunes Development Group. With an emphasis on human

development and the many aspects, facets and nuances of

writing, Indivisible Integers offers a myriad of writing and

artistic services and overarching literary consultancy.

With more than ten years’ experience in artistry, and a lifelong background in writing that stemmed from fond memories biblical stories and novels on his grandmother’s lap, NGTVZRO is a multi-dimensional individual that is interested in sparking transformative changes internally, locally and globally. Of fearless persuasion and of peerless skill, as it is incomparable, he firmly believes in using his gifts to make lasting positive affect on the world, and igniting fires inside others that they too may begin the journey of sincerely helping and encouraging others.

Perhaps one of the busiest days in Marlee’s recent history, ZRO delivered a

transformative hour-long set.

On his debut album, R3dSw0rd, the very first track

is entitled ‘my kids’. This is iconic. Thrust into the

role of adopted parent when his cousin passed much

too soon in life, he created the gritty album in 8

days’ time, and it is highly reflective of social

injustices, love of artistry, lyricism, and the

challenges of his life.

R3dSw0rd reflects Z’s passion for spiritual accuracy in creative works, and tells sincere stories, a

seamless marriage of three entities—storytelling, poetry and hip-hop. It is difficult to tell where a

story begins and a series of rhymes ends.

Press Release for Marlee’s Tea and Coffee

Feature

In the theater production, RIMSHOT: The

Urban Musical, ZRO plays the role of an

insidious enforcer, disillusioned with the world

and thirsty for power. The production, which

champions the cause of awareness in the arena

of human trafficking, is a parallel of the

exploitative music industry and the modern

slavery of human trafficking.

In this production, not only does ZRO star in a

principal role, he is also a scriptwriter, and a

writer for the marketing materials.

RIMSHOT: The Urban Musical has made

rounds in multiple states, and the executive

producer, Angela Carswell, has even spoken

before state legislators on the topic of the topic

of said systematic exploitation.
