In the world of slam poetry, few voices walk the tightrope between raw vulnerability and unwavering power like Mys Perfect.
A Ghanaian poet, storyteller, and spoken word artist, her performances are not simply heard they’re felt. Her verses reach into the quiet places we often protect, pulling out truths about identity, healing, and the delicate balances of human connection. Her journey into poetry wasn’t loud it was intentional. A rebellion not of fists, but of feelings, penned quietly in notebooks before finding a mic.
Today, Mys Perfect stands as a dynamic creative: a writer, performer, budding music artist, and the force behind Perfect Literary Inc, her personal brand dedicated to literary development and African storytelling.
On stage, she is deliberate. In her words, you feel both ache and agency. She doesn’t just recite she restores. Whether blending poetry into melody or mentoring the next generation of youth writers, her mission remains clear: to stir hearts, awaken voices, and inspire change one verse at a time.
And on August 9th at the British Council, she returns to the slam stage not just to compete, but to complete something.
