    The seeds sown by the likes of pioneering jazzman and spoken-word poetry forefather Gil Scott-Heron 30 years ago are still alive today, taking root and sprouting calls for consciousness and revolution across America and globally. One of the most promising emergent voices heeding this clarion call is D-Revolution, a poet and spoken-word artist whose mounting buzz is catching the ears of entertainment insiders and recruiting fans throughout the nation. The Chicago native's upbringing and segue into manhood have not been the "crystal stair" so aptly described by Langston Hughes. D-Revolution's biography is rife with adversity, pain and despair, against a backdrop of street hustling, a family history of addiction and the very makings of what could have made a tragic government statistic. But coincidentally, D-Revolution bucked the trend laid out before him, and became a player turned poet, a prospective pimp turned lay-prophet, a probable statistic turned realistic role model.
