Poetik

​Born in New Zealand and raised in Apia Samoa, the world got its first taste of POETIK on his three independently released street albums ‘The Ambassador’, ‘For The Ville’and ‘Poetikly Done’ and ’Hamofied’ ep debuted at #1 on Itunes New Zealand Hip Hop chart in 2017.
Known for his outspoken opinions on racism, Polynesian culture, and mainstream and for putting Samoan HipHop on the map, POETIK has brought a distinct Pasifika blend to his 90’s West Coast flows, earning him nominations and winning awards.  His background is a testament to his strength and drove him to always stay true to himself, his fans and his sound. Not afraid to speak about the struggle of poverty, love, the hood, culture, racism, street violence, and the devilish side of the music industry.
