About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Turquoise swirl

MUSIC: I am a 25 year old multi-talented, registered songwriter. My life experiences and the experiences of others have inspired me to write songs that are inspirational, motivational, and most of all relatable. With melodies ranging from smooth and soulful, to sharp and edgy, you will discover that I am a writer with no bounds. A very successful grammy-winning songwriter's advice to me was to always challenge myself and that will stick with me through out life. I was born and raised in church and there is where I first developed my passion for music. Having a gospel singer for a mother, a music producing father, and very musically inclined family, my passion for music was only natural. I've been into the groove thang since I was doing the womb thang. LOL. At the age of 7, I was already harmonizing, arranging music, playing instruments, writing songs, and writing poetry on an adult level. I grew up listening to the Winans family, the Clark Sisters, and other gospel greats. Family get together's over grandmas house always had gospel music blasting. lol. The first album I ever owned was Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation. It was a black cassette tape. Remember that ya'll? LOL. You couldn't tell me NOTHING back then. I loved me some JJ. But today, there are so many great artists, fellow writers, and producers that I admire and would like to work with including Beyonce, Leona Lewis, Janet, MJ, Usher, Jamie Foxx, Tank, India Irie, Dwele, Eric Benet, Danity Kane, Day 26, Gwen Stefani, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Co Co Clemmons, Ki Ki Sheard, J Moss, Mary Mary, Tweet, Shanice, Fantasia, Jennifer Hudson, Marques Houston, Omarion, Chris Brown, Rhianna, Babyface, Carrie Underwood, Mariah Carey, Jo Jo, Kelly Rowland, Solange, Ashanti, Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, Raven Simmone, Timbaland, Bryan Michael Cox, Wyldcard, Adonis, Teedra Moses, Keri Hilson, alot of new and upcoming artists, producers, writers, and the list just goes on and on. So far, I've worked with many talented artists, producers, and directors nationwide and internationally, and also have worked on and been featured on various underground projects along the east coast. I'm interested in networking with anyone and everyone who has a serious passion for music of ALL genres. "Success is loving what you do, and loving how you do it"- Maya Angelou

Reasons why NOT to vote for Hilary Clinton

The reason I feel you shouldn't vote for Hilary is because she does not know how to maintain good relationships (obviously). The Clinton campaign was recently involved in the LARGEST ELECTION LAW FRAU...
