The Journey

"I didn't choose poetry. The rhythm of the city chose me, and the need to heal gave me a voice."

From Silence to Spoken Word

Growing up in the heart of the city, silence was often a survival mechanism. But inside, a storm was brewing—a mix of observations, frustrations, and dreams that needed an outlet. Johnny E. Osby II discovered that the rhythm of Hip Hop and the structure of classical poetry could be fused to create something powerful: a vessel for truth.

The Mission

Today, Johnny is more than an author; he is a mentor and a speaker dedicated to showing young men, particularly in the African American community, that vulnerability is a strength. His work challenges the stereotypes of masculinity and offers a blueprint for emotional intelligence and spiritual growth.

Windows to My Soul

His latest collection, Windows to My Soul, is the culmination of years of introspection. It is an invitation to look within, to confront the shadows, and to let the light in.
