Kahlil Crawford is a Bop Poet and Bass Journalist. He is best known as the author of ØRGΛN C1TY and has contributed to many other publications. His writing has been likened to “a found artifact of an ancient culturally designed sacred text.”

Kahlil integrates intellectual rigor and a subcultural ethos to illuminate multiple topics with a unique, uncompromising outlook – exploring the meditative and existential qualities of the lived human experience.^[1] His unique brand of music journalism, known as "Bass Journalism", is designed to illuminate and levitate the healing impact of abstract Electronic Music genres such as Jungle, Drum 'N Bass and Detroit Techno.

Kahlil's ultimate aim is to leave an intellectual remnant for human contemplation and interpretations of our existential journey.

Background[edit]

Kahlil got his start as a poetry performance artist at the legendary SPICES jazz club in Chicago. From there he co-founded the Kulture Kreate open mic series at Hampton University. Upon graduation, Kahlil became a fixture in the Twin Cities poetry scene performing at venues like the Artists' Quarter and Kieran's.

After studying Clinical Psychology and Art Therapy at the California Institute of Integral Studies, he decided to become an Artist - studying Painting at the San Francisco School of Art and Ceramics at the Hyde Park Art Center in Chicago.
