Hailing from Bed-Stuy Brooklyn, Shane Romero is known for his sharp tongue as a poet. He began performing at the age of 16 and considers his poetry to be a reflection of his personal life experiences. Shane’s poetry deals with realistic content, addressing issues affecting the inner-city, topics of race, violence, love and the personal drive to better himself. Shane wishes to offer his words as help to those who may be dealing similar situations and looking for someone to relate to.
