Spoken Reasons

Spoken Reasons (real name: John Baker) has created a massive name for himself as a multi-talented artist and one of the “Young Kings of Comedy.” With nearly over 200 million views and 1 million + subscribers on his YouTube Channel, over a quarter of a million followers on Twitter and 200 thousand likes on Facebook, he has a loyal following both on and off the world wide web. He’s performed at the sold out, celebrity-laced Shaquille O’neil’s All-Star Comedy Jam in Atlanta as well as at many of the top schools and universities across the country.

Growing up in Bradenton, Florida, he first discovered his passion for sharing his thoughts on a stage by witnessing spoken word poetry online. Bit by the poetry bug, he began developing his own style and following. But it didn’t stop there. Realizing the impact that the internet had on his life, he decided to use it as a tool to spread his thoughts and messages globally. He penned the name “Spoken Reasons” for himself because he realized the true power of words, stating, “Everything that comes out of your mouth has a living with purpose.”

In only a few years, Spoken Reasons has worked with Grammy Award-Winning Mogul 50-Cent, So-So Def Artist Dondria, Artist/Song-writer Pricilla Renea, and more. He also had a film appearing in theaters in 2013 along with Oscar Award-winning Actress Sandra Bullock. Spoken Reasons is best known for his comedic skits, hilarious monologues and Spoken Word. He recently unveiled the depth of his musical abilities through his mixtape “The New King of Comedy,” which features 1 Million + hits such as “Why You Lying,” “Electric Wheelchar” and “This Goes Out To My Mama.” Living by his mantra #FCHW (“Faith, Consistency and Hard Work”), this is only the beginning of what Spoken Reasons has to offer the world.
