Emcee and Street Journalist AWKWORD is the brains behind the #WorldView movement, the first-ever 100% for-charity global Hip Hop project. For more information on the music and/or the mission, click here (AWKWORDrap.com).

AWKWORD is the founder of — and writer/photographer for — Hip Hop music, art & culture blog GYMR (GYMRblog.com) and a contributing photographer for The Village Voice's 2010 #1 Neighborhood Blog EV Grieve. He also has a periodic writing/photography column in street-wise New York City news and lifestyle blog Bowery Boogie.

Previously, AWKWORD has had his photographic (and/or writing) works featured by/in the Reebok Human RIghts Awards, Double XXposure Media Group, Universal Records, Miss Ecuador, The Boys & Girls Club of America, The Visiting Nurse Association, and such Hip Hop glossies as YRB, Mass Appeal, Elemental, and RIME.

AWKWORD prefers shooting guerilla-street-style, ideally overseas and/or in urban neighborhoods. However, most likely for charity, he will branch off into other arenas, as he did shooting a model calendar benefiting the 5013c nonprofit The Gear-Up Foundation...
