What is a Nice Umbrella Term?

If you wanted an umbrella term that could be used to apply to:

Spoken word artists

(traditional) poets

beat boxers

(a capella) singers

lyricists

freestyle rappers

and any other 100% human produced, verbal or sound based artists, what would it be?

 

Can you think of one? the term "oral artists" sounds a little...iffy.

Do you think 'Stage Artists' sounds dumb?

Any other suggestions and feel free to ask your kids or dh for suggestions because I can't think of ANYTHING!

Please don't lump poets in with rappers, singers and the rest!

 

There isn't an umbrella term :) Idk. Artists of the Spoken Word is the best I can come up with.

To me, rappers are poets.

 

It was teaching poetry workshops with a rap performer that got me hooked on rap music.

 

I think there is room in the poetry tent for all kinds.
