About Me

what about me? you can't decipher what you're not ready to understand. im living in the beautiful struggle. body and soul at war. my physical is the medium. my mind is the platform. my reality is the stage. im not perfect, matter fact im human...so are you. we're prone to failure, show me someone who denies that and i'll prove em wrong. I live music. i live in counter-rhythm. my vibratto bends pitch. im usually mezzo-forte but when im pissed im ugly. I love God...and if you dont know that about me then i've failed as "light & salt", but im loved and forgiven. respect life.

My Interests

Seeking truth, alongside the obstacles and hindrances in the way. Music, infinitely and eternally. Teaching, Singing, Dancing, Sweating. Carving elements (water, snow, concrete). Pretending to be a ninja, wailing on guitars, trumpets...i dunno, livin' free...bein' me.

I'd like to meet:

someone who could possibly increase my chances of working in the music business industry without starting at the bottom. my potential, my refined-self, my conscience, my alter ego. Confrontation, success, defeat, tribulation, pain, joy, sorrow. 2nd chances...1st chances, opportunity. and if you can understand me...YOU!

Music:

Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind & Fire, Raheem DeVaughn, Van Hunt, D'angelo, Roy Hargrove, Smokie Norful, Anthony Hamilton, Mush Pot, Fred Hammond, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Kanye...TOO MANY TO NAME! I'll do it in genres: Soul, Neo-Soul, Funk, R&B, Hip Hop, Gospel, Christian, Acoustic, A Capella...*pretty much anything soulful, music that is really felt, music that moves physically, spiritually, mentally.

Television:

Books:

the GOOD book, A Call to Die, Always Running, Snaps
