World AIDS Day: "I mean HIV" an HIV/AIDS Awareness Spoken Word Poem by Toni Payne

December 1st is World AIDS Day and Entertainment Publicist and Poet, Toni Payne has teamed up with Magikal Entertainment to create awareness about the disease using poetry and music.
The first of its kind from the Nigerian Entertainment Industry, "I mean HIV" is conscious poetry at it's peak and the goal is that people will listen and wish to educate themselves more about the virus and its disease, knowing that not talking about it does not make you immune from it. A very touchy subject among a lot of Nigerians, it gives several scenarios about the virus and the disease and talks about self-education, taking precautions and not stigmatizing people with HIV.
Available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon, Rhapsody and other online retailers, the poem also touches on the subject of stigma and educating ones self about how you can or can't get HIV. All is not lost for those with HIV, "I mean HIV" concludes with the story of a lady who was born with HIV, yet she did not let the virus control her life, she went on to live a normal life educating people about the disease.
"I Mean HIV" will be used as part of Magikal Entertainment's "1 Life 2 Live" campus awareness campaign, with an audio CD featuring the spoken word poem "I mean HIV" and the song "Raincoat" by Brain, distributed across campuses nationwide.

  1. I was diagnose April 17,2015 and find out I'm HIV positive.I was scared because there is no cure for HIV/AIDS but today some people still don't believe that there is cure for HIV, it can only be cured through Africans root and herbs,and our doctor's here in USA few of them know's about the African herbal medicine can cure Hiv but they chooses to hide it from us just to make a sales of ARV DRUGS. I did a research online finding way to get rid of my disease,I saw a comment about a herbal doctor on internet Name Dr Owona who has cured several disease with his powerful herbal medicine, I contacted him on whats-app, chat with him explain my self to him.He said he can cure hiv perfectly well , he gave me his request which i send to him. within 5 days he sent me the herbal medicine through ups courier delivering service And told me how to take the medicine for 3 weeks to get cured,I did for 3 weeks, within this 3 weeks i notice a very big change in my health and i new some thing great has happened then i went to confirm my result it was absolutely Negative.The doctor who new i was hiv positive was asking me how come i am negative, what did it took to get cure and were did i get this medicine from and how did i get rid of it I told him every thing about the herbal medicine that cure me. imagine doctor telling me not to let anyone know about it,I wasn't shock though i knew they know about the herbal cure but chose to hide it in other to make sales on ARV DRUGS,if you are HIV positive please contact my savior drowonaspelltemple@gmail.com or WHATSAPP him through this number +2348115204568.
