POETIK

Data updated on 2025-06-14 14:38:09 UTC
From the vibrant streets of Apia, Samoa, to the world stage, Poetik (real name Ventry Parker) stands as a trailblazing figure in the realm of hip hop. Born into a legacy of music as the son of a renowned singer, Poetik's childhood was steeped in diverse musical influences - from the West Coast sounds of the United States to the dynamic scenes of New Zealand and Australia. This rich tapestry of experiences shaped his unique style: a fusion of raw West Coast hip hop with a distinctive Pacific twist. Currently, Poetik is working on new projects, including the 'SUMMER IN THE 09' EP and 'HURRICANE SEASON' album, with HAMOFIED 4 on the horizon. His aspirations extend beyond music, aiming for crossover success in acting and entrepreneurial ventures with his new retail shop.

Poetik's journey is marked by authenticity and resilience. His time with Gangsta Ridd and the Runtingz Family enriched his understanding of music and faith. His message of unity, peace, cultural awareness, and truth underpins his work. Visually, he brings a mix of California cool and the golden era of hip hop aesthetics, proudly representing the 685 in every aspect.

As Poetik continues to break boundaries and champion Pacific hip hop, his story stands as a testament to staying true to one's roots while boldly navigating the global music landscape.
