I grew up on the West Side of Chicago's inner city. I felt the firsthand impact of the drug culture, violence, misogyny and the glorification of this reality through music. I excelled in sports and gained a full football scholarship as a running back in college.
Unfortunately, many people I grew up with did not have an escape from the streets.
I also grew up playing the piano, violin and clarinet. After a series of detours—from a short-lived football career and nights as a party promoter, to navigating the corporate world—I’ve returned to my true passion, music.
I have also delved into photography, graphic design, and cinematography as a profession.
It is well documented that most record companies have weaponized rap music and control the narrative through their artists by controlling them with riches and other means. They perpetuate the negative norms and profit, while the decay of morality in our society & within the youth that consume this genre, has accelerated.
A shift is coming... we have a part to play.
As independent artists gain influence, there's opportunities to drive positive change that is tangible. I believe I was created for this moment in time and to be one of many to reshape the norms of the rap culture and other genres.
Join me and be part of something bigger than one person. Your partnership will change lives and usher in something that the world needs right now.... LOVE
With the success and traction gained from the release, I will collaborate with like-minded musicians to amplify the impact by offering free workshops and mentoring for emerging artists, and support initiatives that align with the mission.
I believe this will help foster a community dedicated to empowering music.
To all who support this positive album, thank you for your generosity. Your contribution is more than just financial, it’s a commitment to spreading joy and hope through music.
Other than supporting the rewards portion of your support, every cent will go towards creating a high-quality album designed to uplift and inspire.
