Poets Jazz House Presents Father Amde Hamilton of the Watts Prophets Poets Jazz House is honored to present Father Amde a hero and legend to poets worldwide. Formed out of the fury of the Watts Riots in 1965 the Watts Prophets were young black poet-performers railing against police brutality, institutionalized poverty, American hypocrisy, complacency and the possibility of a revolution. Accompanied with percussions and later by pianist Dee-Dee McNeil. The Watts Prophets style of performing laid between street talking and a revolutionary sermon. Watts Prophets were the foundation for West Coast hip-hop.
