I know a man
A living legend
Miraculously preserved
As the elders obtained
The good report of him
Just like Joshua
He’s not just a seer
But a smooth nourisher
And a zealous zealot
A bump is an encounter
Despite all disjoint
Refrains from discord
To create the harmony
Percussing the refrain
A symbol of fulfilment
A symbol of restoration
Arousing with passion
A well of expertise
I know a man
Competent and skilful
He’s just like Joshua
He's a slave driver
Wired to inspire
As my fives sits
Strictly '4' signature
I outro my salute
Irregular, yet in time
This poem is written in honour of a Mentor, Model, Slave Driver and Living Legend; Dr Kunle Joshua Pinmiloye, popularly called 'Ksticks'
Ksticks is a lecturer at the Department of Music, Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife. He is also the Music Director at Daystar Christian Center. He had his Association Board of Royal School of Music, London and had a degree course in music which enabled him become the first drummer to major in drums. Having a PhD in drums was a challenge as he's the first of the kind. Ksticks has a wide scope and impact on the world music both home and abroad. This is so because he has trained people musically within and outside Nigeria in vocals, music conducting, music business and african drumming!
Ksticks is undoubtedly a genius and a classic. His impact on Nigerian and African music cannot be overemphasised.
Ksticks will be Live in Concert/Launch of his DVD "INSIGHT INTO AFRICAN DRUMMING". A one of it's kind sensational and electrifying event that features great men like Kore, Nathaniel Bassey, Wole Oni, Mike Abdul, Holy Mallam, Wale Oba, Laide Sax, Mike Aremu, Simone Keys, Sheyi Kehnny, Samson Conga, African Master Drummers (AMD) and many more.
