In an era ruled by quick answers and faster distractions, there comes a voice that slows us down one that speaks not from trend, but from timeless truth is Kai Nananom.
Kai Nananom, A poet. A performer. A keeper of ancestral memory. This is a spoken word artist who doesn’t just write poems he channels prophecy.
With a message rooted in elder wisdom, this performer reminds us of the sacred knowledge buried in silence, in stories untold, and in the hearts of the aged. “Spend some time with the aged not everything is found on Google,” he says. That isn’t a quote. It’s a philosophy.
On stage, he is more than a performer. He becomes a vessel voicing lessons from ancestors long gone but never forgotten. His verses bridge the past and present, anchoring modern minds in indigenous wisdom.
At the Ehalakasa National Poetry Slam Prelims 2025, this performer brings more than a poem. He brings ritual. Rhythm. Remembering.
