About Vendor
Learn more about this vendor for your event.
I’m Jo’rell Whitfield, also known as Lyrical. I’m a spoken word artist, poet, and storyteller from New York City, with over 20 years of performance experience. My work blends electric stage presence with thoughtful storytelling rooted in cultural expression, emotional depth, and Black excellence. Born and raised in Queens, I found my voice in Baltimore’s vibrant poetry scene after high school. Since then, I’ve taken my words across the country, performing in nearly 30 major cities and internationally. Whether on a major stage like the Smithsonian or in intimate spaces like classrooms and community gatherings, my aim is always to move people emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. From powerful solo sets to theatrical duo shows, I bring a unique mix of rhythm, heart, and cultural relevance. I specialize in curating shows for corporate functions, cultural celebrations, educational programming, and special events. Depending on your audience, my performances can also include improv, crowd engagement, or talkback moments. Let’s create a moment your guests won’t forget. Sample video available upon request.
