My Interests

CHANGING THE NATION WITH OUR MUSIC

I'd like to meet:

ANY YOUNG AND SERIOUS ARTISTS, PRODUCERS, PHOTOGRAPHERS, DESIGNERS OR ASPIRING YOUNG BUSINESS PEOPLE

Music:

.. width="425" height="350" ..CHANGE THE NATION is a revolutionary album that blends the Bay Area’s newest sound craze, the high-energy HYPHY, with powerful and honest lyrics that hit close to home for all of the contributing artists. They are about politics and war, good times and bad times, life, love and loss. This sampling from the title track “Change the Nation” would make even Woody Guthrie like hyphy: "If I could change the nation there would be no more black on black crime No more mothers struggling; Nobody on the grind Everybody in the ‘hood would all get along And all the kids around the world would know right from wrong If I could change the nation…If WE could change the nation!"-Tha Faculty.....Standout tracks include Carina's intimate and soulful "Any Day Now", Chuck Wester's real-life banger "True Story", Trinidad’s revolutionary dancehall head-banger “Shackles and Chains”, and singer/MC Nefarteti’s electrifying Hiphop and rock mash-up “Hypnotic”. The hidden bonus track “Impeachment” is well worth the wait. Don’t miss it!
