Dockers MC was selected as one of the Top Ten Literary Talents for 2008 by The Times. She recently released the limited edition book/cd Hold To My Ear. Her first book, Mistakes in the Background is published by Harper Collins in November 2008. As an illustrator, she has designed artwork for Kate Nash and Scroobius Pip.
Dockers MC is a spoken word artist and illustrator from south London, "raised by a family where eccentricity is the second thing checked by the nurse". Verbally drowning the audience with a treasury of words, she feeds the audience monologues of characters she creates with her ability to absorb traits of people by face, voice and observation alone. She manages to collect pockets of words together to create a type of 'flo-etry' that makes your brain tap its feet and smile at the same time.

He runs workshops in schools and his album Poetry in the Key of Gee was released to critical acclaim.
Mister Gee is a co-winner of a Sony Gold Award for Radio as the resident poet on the Russell Brand Show on BBC Radio 2, and is the resident poet of the hit West-End musical Into The Hoods.
