— Unknown, Downtown Wilmington Post

“As part of River Fest in Wilmington this year, there will be a poetry showcase featuring performance/slam poets El’ja and Enfinite with a special performance by One Tough Poet and an open mic showcase”

— Steven Ritenour, Star Press Online

“For years, local poet El'Ja Bowens has expressed himself through art, especially spoken word poetry. But his latest project, "No Words, Vol. 1," may be the first time he's ever expressed his artistic intent solely through the sounds of music. The record uses little to no words, but embraces musical production instead.”

— Jessica Devault, FayObserver

“El'Ja has a nice style and approach, and its evident that he can handle himself well on a song. ”

— Darnell Hodges:A&R Consultant & CEO of DLHPromo.com, DLHPromo.com

— Mr.Bugz, Mr.Bugz Radio Show

“From what I heard,this is DEFINITELY worth the purchase.From the beginning to the end,this Spoken Word album mixes poetry with elements of Neo-Soul and Hip-Hop.Don't sleep on this album......”

— James Mitchell, Review on Long Time Coming by El'Ja Bowens

“Fayetteville slam poet LeJuane “El’Ja” Bowens will perform his spoken word at the step show on Friday.”

— Jessica DeVault from FayObserver, Stepping Up: CIAA Step Show Throwdown is this Friday

“Just Dancing: Dancers express themselves through krumping, a style that is becoming more into the Mainstream”

— Jessica Devault, FayObserver

“El’Ja finds that Poetry-N-Motion acts as a sanctuary for poets and lyrical artists, stating that “it is a blessing that individuals are able to express their souls and creativity.””

— Aryn Hicks, Small Talk:The Voice of Methodist University

“I purchased this book to use with a poetry unit for my high school students. They absolutely loved the poems, especially "My Shorty" and "Why I Write". The collection includes poems such as haiku's, rhymed & free verse. The author writes in a reader friendly style without compromising substance for form. I highly recommend this book as an addition to any poet's library and every teacher's collection of educational resources. I loved it. ”

— Keysha J.Hall, Amazon.com

“In the end, the 27-year-old El-Ja won over the judges and took home the Bottega Soul Slam (it was winner-takes-all)”
