MySpace LayoutsThrough compiliation of musical thought, sensuality, depth, love, and creativity, a theory was conceived. I am this theory - a natural phenomenon created by The Almighty - one who has been constantly tested through the challenging labyrinth of life - withstanding these tests through perseverance, love, and faith from those who believe in me. I am a musician, a creator, an entity full of soul, an introspective philosopher that sees life's depth in rich textures, a being that consistently walks in love, a paradox, a dark and sensual brotha. I am one who recognizes that my ability to convey messages and emotions through the universal language of music is a great blessing - one that I can never take for granted.Please take the time to enjoy this music, which comes straight from my soul. May it bless you all!! Love, peace, and soul from the underground.
