About Me

I am proud to be an artist. I willfully wear my heart on the outside and go out of my way to expose it to others. It is in this vulnerability that I have chosen to connect with the rest of the world. My thoughts and dreams are on display through affirmation and negation, admiration or loathing. They are actually there as a tool for myself and others to work through the moments that we all share in some way or another. I feel extremely blessed to have the ability to engage and contribute in dialog with the long line of rhythmic conversationalists that have spoken so eloquently(and not so) before me. This road is not easy,nor should it be. I am only worth what I create. So I will find my wealth at the end of this song and spend it on the next verse.I wrote this as an offering to my ancestors before me whos chanting,singing,incantations,psalms,ballads,arrangements and serenades have provided the score for life as we know it. Thank you.Porter.
