Jahah Performance at Club Fuzion in Atlanta / NOSTALGIA CD Release

July 11th, 2011

My homie Jahah is a Hip Hop / R&B artist based in Atlanta, GA.  A little while back I had the opportunity to organize some of my musical buddies and put together a band for a show supporting the release of his new project entitled “Nostalgia”.  The band featured Carlos Simon on keys, Larry Newson on drums, Rod Harris on guitar and yours truly on bass.  Check out the footage from the live show!

I also had the opportunity to play bass on and co-produce a few tracks on the album!  In Jahah’s own words:

“For those of you who miss the “golden era ” of hip hop (Biggie, 2 Pac, Nasty Nas, Jay-Z, A Tribe Called Quest, KRS-One, Gang Starr, Black Moon, Wu-Tang etc) my project Nostalgia RED is for you!”

The album is available on iTunes and Amazon or you can download it for free!

AFAR AND HIP HOP IN PERU!

AFAR workshop on hip hop in Trujillo, Peru

What’s up everybody?  It’s really been a while since I’ve last posted about AFAR and our travels.  We were recently invited to Peru to do our instructional workshops and concerts at the Bi-National Centers, where people are given an opportunity to come and learn English.  This trip has been a little different, and easier, in that almost everyone that we come across are either learning English or have become very fluent in English.

Introducing JayeBerry and THE FEEL

January 11th, 2010

Around November 2009, I started getting that feeling.  You know that feeling – the one that makes sense out of the tugging on your heart and the churning in your gut.  The one that boosts your faith and helps you to believe without a doubt that your works will be fruitful…. yeah that’s the one!

The Feel artist: JayeBerry

I’m a cog in a machine called “The Feel”.  We use our gifts and talents to create a fun, memorable, reflective,  and encouraging aural and visual experience.  Our basic premise is that people relate to what they can feel and that no musical experience should be devoid of substance.  No gimmicks, just heartfelt, passionate, creative expression in all that we do. » Read more: Introducing JayeBerry and THE FEEL
