In the beginning, Compton´s life as well as some insights into the historical and socio-cultural background that characterize the author´s life and his works will be described. A discussion on Compton´s view on topics such as Black Englishes, Hip Hop oralities and Turntable Pluralities follows, after which the paper will provide some information on the poetry collection Performance Bond as well as other works by Wayde Compton. After an explanation concering the field of "Hip Hop aesthetics" as well as a discussion of Compton´s poem "Declaration of the Halfrican Nation", the paper concludes with a presentation of "mixed-race" or "hyphenated" writers and their work aside from Wayde Compton.
