Then the pandemic took a different turn in the world that stopped many different artists from performing and or producing. This did not stop Shay.thepoet, it instead has opened up a new world for her. Since the pandemic, she has performed in Atlanta, Los Angles, Florida, Ohio, and many other states. Shay is the first Poetry Me Please grand slam champion and has many goals and aspirations for the future. Shay's Links:@shay.thepoetCHECK OUT AMANDA'S NEW TV SHOW: The Poet Speaks with Amanda Eke!
