My business interests are, primarily, in the Music , Publishing and Marketing industries, serving as a radio promoter and media publicist, author/writer/editor.
I also represent authors and filmmakers in all forms of media as well, including but not limited to; radio, television, cable, print, and online.
Music Industry:
I attended college as a Music Education Major and my great-grandfather had been a professor at my college alma mater.
As a recording artist, I was once signed with the late notable major label R&B producer Aubrey "Skip" Gravatt, who is credited with having discovered disco queen Evelyn Champagne King.
After having worked a few years in the Music industry as a musician and recording artist who enjoyed several recordings that received some national radio airplay and international press coverage, I have now worked in the Music business as a radio/video promoter, media publicist, radio station program producer and co-host for over eighteen years.
As a promoter and publicist, I represent musicians and recording artists in most music genres .
I am also co-owner and the Director of Marketing for Houston-based Eartastic Records .
Also, ahem, a while back, I had an early mid-life crisis, experienced a temporary bout of insanity, and produced this recording , and some deejays, who were equally as insane as I was, liked it and commented on it here . Unfortunately, this song is also carried as a digital download by iTunes .
On a more serious note, if you are a musician or recording artist, please check out this page that contains vital and very important resources and information you need to know about (and have in your possession) in order to remain competitive, survive, and thrive in the new 21st Century Music industry.

Publishing Industry:
I have also worked in the Publishing industry for over fourteen years, and my publishing credits include being internationally syndicated in both online and print publications. I also have several Fiction works to my credit that include novels, poetry and stageplays.
My first Fiction novel, a cross genre work containing the elements of Science Fiction, Religion, Suspense, and Mystery, was "Millennium Eve," an "end of the world" story line uniquely implemented by turn-of-the-century self-thinking/decision-making androids. While you can see the detailed collage front cover per the above link, which depicts various elements within the story, the back cover is of a United States flag engulfed in smoke with its stripes dripping in blood.
"Millennium Eve" presented the first female president of what was known as "New America," which included Canada. I was a television guest on a couple of stations, and did over 100 radio and newspaper interviews. As expected, I was lambasted by a few Americans for insinuating that America would ever have a female president, and more than a few Canadians sought my head for the guillotine for even merely suggesting that Canada and the United States would ever merge (my belated apology to Mexico for, inadvertently, excluding it from the merger).
In my story, I compared the physical description of my president to actress Geena Davis and, ironically, Geena later played the first female president in a new 2005 television series titled, Commander-In-Chief" . Now, as "Millennium Eve" was published seven years prior, I often wonder if I/my story influenced Geena and her show. Hmmm...
In any event, it appears that I may, possibly, soon be vindicated should Hillary become the first female president of these United States and, from what I have recently learned regarding George Bush and the two presidents from Canada and Mexico, of their secretly creating the new Amero currency (which is similar to the European Euro), and which the Amero will replace all U. S., Canadian, and Mexico currency.
My tale of doom opens with my original thematic poem, titled "Yesterday, We Had Tomorrow," of which you can review below:
"Yesterday, We Had Tomorrow"
By Kenny Love
Copyright © 1998 Kenny Love All Rights Reserved
Yesterday, we had tomorrow,
But today, we have neither,
Seems all time was borrowed,
For on life's brink, we teeter,
We built houses of sand,
Instead of houses of clay,
We hastened our end,
We lessened each day,
On a flight called 'Omnipotence',
Destination unknown,
Via plights of ill significance,
We've sung our last song,
So, save all tears of sorrow,
Much too late for a breather,
For yesterday, we had tomorrow,
But today, we have neither

PERSONAL:
My ancestral heritage includes both African American and Native American (Choctaw Indian nation) , of which I am equally proud. I have also served as a U. S. Army sergeant and as a police officer.
Here is a photograph of a few members of my family from our most recent family reunion .
Also, one of my slightly famous cousins is Hollywood actor Mirron E. Willis , whom Science Fiction fans and, particularly, Star Trek: Next Generation ("Vorn") and Star Trek: Voyager ("Rettik") fans may recognize.
Thank you for taking these moments to review my information.

*MAJOR HEALTH TIP!*
Hopefully, this vital information will save both eyes and lives!
"How To Unclog Stuffed Nostrils"
(particularly, when all over-the-counter medicines have successfully failed you)
By Kenny Love
Do you ever have head congestion so severe and to the point that your nostrils become stuffed, clogged up, even reddened and flared while causing you to almost, literally, blow your brains out into your favorite Sunday handkerchief?
Well, as this ailment had become overly frustrating for me, and I had almost reached a proverbial breaking point, short of using a shishkabob stick, or worse, a welder's torch, here is how I recently elected to unstuff and unclog my own nostrils...
Note: This may also be a method that you wish to use yourself if you have this similar problem albeit with some added precaution that I was not initially privy to and, unfortunately, learned the hard way...
1. I opened my overhead cabinet and withdrew a coffee filter.
2. I then gathered a can of black pepper and a bottle of chili powder.
3. I sprinkled enough of each vigorously into the filter to ensure proper coverage of its bottom.
4. I then gathered all sides of the filter, closing it to form a bag-like container, followed by a brief exercise of shaking it a number of times in an effort to mix the ingredients sufficiently.
5. I then opened the filter and took several big whiffs.
[-----What I Learned From This Experiment-----]:
The first and, possibly, the most important thing that I learned from this experiment was DON'T DO IT!!!
The second thing that I learned was, if you insist on doing it, be sure to close your eyes very tightly so none of the mixture backfires directly into your eyes during your external breaths into the filter. With my equilibrium currently being slightly off balance, along with my inability to establish a cohesive rhythm, I zigged when I should have zagged, and I flipped when I should have flopped.
Thus, my failure to take the proper precautions and get my rhythm right on all accounts resulted in this five-alarm homemade mixture causing a subsequent hellfire and brimstone sensation in my eyes.
And, while I am now blind (hopefully, temporarily), I must admit that I cannot recall when both of my nostrils have been more clear.
One Final Caution: To be on the best possible safe side of preventative care, before employing this procedure, you may wish to consider placing masking tape (or better yet, goggles) over both eyes, as well as consider contacting ETMC and the local fire department in advance to have them standing by in case an emergency occurs.

Editor's Note: This health tip has been excerpted from Kenny Love's upcoming reference titled, "How NOT To Kill Yourself With Grandma's Death-Dealing Home Remedies 101 - Volume 1." This unique reference is due out next Fall, and should be available everywhere, including retail outlets, hospitals and, particularly, funeral homes.
The second volume of this series, which is due out in Spring 2009, is aptly titled, "Grandma's Remedies Still Won't Work For Me!: Lessons In Innate Futility."
Naturally, both volumes are duly expected to top the New York Times' bestseller lists.
