Iyeoka Ivie Okoawo is a Poet and Recording Artist, a 2010 TED Global Fellow, the 2nd place 2009 Individual World Poetry Slam Champion, and a spokesperson for the Amenawon Foundation. Daughter of Nigerian-born parents who both hold Doctorate degrees from Boston University, Iyeoka was a practicing pharmacist before launching her career as a poet, singer, activist and educator. In her native Esan language, Iyeoka means “I want to be respected.” By channeling her culture and ancestral influences, she delivers an authentic and inspiring message of healing through accessing the power of the moment.
Iyeoka began her musical career by founding the group The Rock by Funk Tribe, a collective of musicians that enabled her to interweave her poetry with jazz, blues, funk, and gospel. She released her first solo full length album of poem-songs called “Black and Blues” in 2004 through Phanai Records and then began to tour and make numerous appearances on other artist’s albums, including The Press Project’s “Get Right” album and “Memoirs of the Tempo” by Tempo Valley.
In 2007, Iyeoka released her second album of poetry and music fusion “Hum The Bass Line” again on Phanai Records. In 2008, she recorded a live album in Hawaii called Live @ KTUH – Honolulu. That same year, Iyeoka lent her vocal talent to a cover of U2′s hit song “Desire” for a compilation of U2 covers called “In The Name Of Love: Africa Celebrates U2.” The album featured Grammy Award-winning/nominated African artists including Angelique Kidjo, Les Nubians, Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars, Vieux Farka Toure, Vusi Mahlasela and the Soweto Gospel Choir with proceeds benefiting the Global Fund.
In 2009, Iyeoka decided to transform her sound and songwriting approach and began working with producer David Franz (in collaboration with her original producer, Francis Phan) to create more traditional song forms. Iyeoka released two EPs that year called “This Time Around” and “Run Into the Rain.” The new music infused more pop, R&B, dance, and hip hop into the mix, creating an “electronic soul” sound.
In November of 2010, Iyeoka released her new album, SAY YES, containing nine songs and two poems, through the Underground Sun artist development company. It is the first “Evolving Album(tm)” where purchasers will receive added content for free as the album evolves. Even before the album’s release, the first song “The Yellow Brick Road Song” was featured in an episode of the new hit HBO series “How To Make It In America” and is now the official theme song of the USA Network’s show “Fairly Legal.”
Iyeoka is currently touring in support of the new album and her poetry. In the past, Iyeoka has toured in support of artists such as Femi Kuti, Zap Mama and Soulive, as well as played musical festivals like Bonnaroo. The buzz surrounding her poetry has also garnered her national attention through performances at the TBS Trumpet Awards, the Sullivan Honors Awards at the Kennedy Center and Russell Simmons’ Def Poetry Jam on HBO.
Iyeoka is a powerful songstress whose lyrical prowess and vocal talents invoke the spirit of soul-shakers Nina Simone, Sade, Lauryn Hill and Amy Winehouse. A story teller to the core, Iyeoka’s hope-filled words pour out from within and build momentum based on truth. As the words transform into songs, they reemerge as unique, emotionally complex gifts to her audience, touching on a wide range of issues–love, women, culture, struggle, and relationships, among many others.

Creating Your Current Anthem
The process of creating your current anthem is a profound practice that helps to uplift the spirit and reintegrate the subconscious with the paths in life that we hope to deliberately choose for ourselves. Working with simple moments that trigger empowerment—breathing, listening, movement, singing anything, speaking in your words is a cleansing process that reconnects you with your ability to summon balance and healing.
The focus of this workshop is to introduce participants to a process of exercising the habitual patterns that feed the creative experience enabling you to create a composition of celebration and recognition that in every moment we can be truly present for the motion in our journeys that launches new paths to renewal.
Through a combination of breathing exercises, writing prompts, improvisation, artistic demonstrations from the facilitators and a supportive environment to explore the gathering of inspiration, you will have the opportunity to transform your authentic voice.
In addition to creating your own anthem, you will learn the tools that propel words to shift from the page to the stage. This workshop is for both the beginner and experienced writer, the slam poet, actors and even non-writers who seek to discover the empowering medium of transforming your life with poetry and the organic ways to express it.
The Testifying Goddess
Here we celebrate our true Goddess nature and learn how to amalgamate her into every aspect of our creative lives. Here we experience deliberate spiritual nourishment and attention to recharge our spirits, bodies and our hearts. We envision the path of strengthening our self-image by cultivating love for our body, the temple of our spirit. This process shifts participants into celebrating our enlightened energy at every stage of our journey in life. Through creative writing exercises and personal testimonies we share about love, pain, changes, the art of sharing your Testimony, and poetic exploration within our sacred circle creating a magical blend of unity, the impact of ritual, laughing, singing, healing, meditating, honoring, opening and connecting. New friendships in this environment go deep fast, and we create a community of Testifying Goddesses that can catapult personal connections with the potential for resonance long after the experience is over. Iyeoka Okoawo is a Poet and Vocalist and a workshop facilitator for both the youth and adults. She inspires women to embrace their creative expression and goddess nature, and enables them to step into their power, opening to the joy of a spiritual and creative life connection. Iyeoka is a nationally award winning poet and a guest Visiting Teacher at the Esalen Institute. Iyeoka has hosted “The Testifying Goddess Weekend” several times with women empowerment retreats and leadership conferences.

We will present “the process of becoming”, putting your art into action (ie: teaching, mentoring, project development etc), and working through the social/familial/political challenges of a career as an artist. Handouts will include University slam resources, a Find Your Approach list to begin framing your career strategy, and quick tips for building your support group.

Iyeoka Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am descending
I am binding time
I'm trying to hold on to
Our sweetest memories
I can still feel you
Your lips on all of me
Your skin in between the silk
Still moving me
You are
You are validating
That my search for love
Is closer to you to me
Souls separated by six degrees
You are the fire inside of me
The blue sky in a sea of dreams
You are the ripples in ecstasy
That pales all fantasies
You are my tomorrow
You are my every yesterday
I am trying to hold on to
These words we used to say
I love you...
But where are we now
Where are we now
Until tomorrow comes
I wait for all of your love
I am trying to hold on to
These words we used to say
I am descending
You are still my rising sun
We are, we are the in between of love
The never failing... the hallelujah of love
We are, You are, You are

In "I Am Descending" by Iyeoka, the singer is reflecting on a past relationship and trying to hold on to the love and memories that they shared with their partner. The singer is descending, which could symbolize a feeling of falling or losing control, as they try to hold onto the past. They are binding time, trying to stop it from moving forward and carrying them further away from their memories. The main theme of the song seems to be the unbreakable bond between two individuals who are separated by distance or time. They may be physically separated, but their love continues to validate the singer's search for love.
The lyrics express both the physical and emotional sensations of being with a loved one. The singer remembers the feeling of their partner's skin, and the way they moved together in ecstasy. They compare their love to an unstoppable force, a fire that burns within them, a blue sky that stands out in a sea of dreams. They hold onto the hope that someday they will be reunited with their partner, but until then they will wait for them and hold onto their love.
Overall, "I Am Descending" is a powerful song that captures the beauty and intensity of love, both the joys and the sorrows that come with it. It speaks to the human experience of searching for love, being separated from it, but holding onto it with every fiber of our being.
