DESCRIPTION:Uncensored\, Unfiltered\, Unapologetic and Oversharing; Priss is a Brighton-based poet/spoken word artist telling their stories through verses\, bars and pars. Priss’ work covers a range of hard-hitting subjects with a focus on race\, trauma\, identity and mental health. \nOffering an extremely personal and uncensored viewpoint through her poetry\, Priss’ work and performances often push for real and tangible change by making audiences question their own biases and prejudices. Stemming from a musical background and a love for hip-hop\, Nash often incorporates rhythmic flow and rapping into her performances in view of some of her favourite poets being rappers as she believes “hip-hop is just poetry with 808s”. \n\nFacebook: @prissnashpoetry\nInstagram: @prissnashpoetry\n\nPhotograph by Olly Hearsy \n  \nTo book an open mic slot\, please message the organiser in advance or take your chances on the door! \n  \nAccess info: There is plenty of comfortable seating.
