Nyle Emerson is a hip-hop and spoken word artist enrolled in the Clive Davis School of Recorded
Music, with the long-term goal of establishing a
hip-hop based performing arts center that will
serve as the nexus to a national network of hip-hop
based after-school programs and initiatives.
Nyle’s first experience with hip-hop as an educational tool was during
his sophomore year of high school when he attended a community class
at Temple University. Integrating free-styling lyrics and discussing the
impact of hip-hop on urban social conditions, he was able to connect
to a community of artists and mentors that had been absent in both his
personal and academic life.
Nyle found a musical foundation in artist communities like Philadelphia’s
The Gathering and New York’s Sin-Sin Open Mic, where each city’s finest
performing artists come to compete, critique, and commune. Nyle further
targeted his strong performance abilities and musical talent to guiding and
mentoring grade school students in theater production and performance
at the Walnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia.
Composing and performing poetry and perfecting such diverse musical
styles as folk, hip-hop and funk has allowed Nyle to utilize language in the
performing arts as key to social self expression.
He gained leadership skills by participating in academic programs
focusing on diversity, like Operation Understanding, which takes sixteen
black and Jewish students on a three week trip through the southern
United States to retrace the steps of the Civil Rights movement. Through
this experience Nyle developed an expertise on promoting dialogue
between two cultures.
