About Me

This material represents a sample of my lyricism.

I've had the opportunity to pitch my lyrics to writer/producers Bernard Wright("Who Do You Love"), Mario Winans("I Don't Wanna Know"), recording engineer Shelton Morgan(Take 6) and the honor of collaborating with multi-platinum producer Kevin Bond(Oleta Adams, Howard Hewett, Kirk Franklin, Yolanda Adams).

The songs on this page were demoed in one late-night recording session. The song, "Man Of Destiny"(which was written for, but never pitched to the producers of the "Prince Of Egypt" soundtracks) was composed from start-to-finish during that session. Some of the music, and all of the vocals were contributed my collaborator on this session, Detrick Edwards(great work D).

It is my prayer that the Love infused into each of these compositions will resonate with you in a way that is both clear and relevant.
