| My music was born out of great personal suffering. Suffering caused by a mind that searched the innermost recesses of the world of the unknown. A mind that was driven mad repeatedly due to glimpses of the unspeakable. A mind that in the end conquered the agony of
knowledge and the despair of wisdom. The sadness and loneliness of knowing. First and foremost, I am what this society laughingly calls a "psychic." A "healer" and "prophet." Second, I am an artist. I am certain that my style is quite unique. I consider myself to be the next generation James Brown. James was the best in my opinion. My music has a hard edge to it. Hard as far as delivery of content is concerned. In this regard, I call it funk. I have been told by many that there are also elements of jazz in my music. I agree. Some even hear a bit of the Islands. Some hear rock influences. I would say that it has all those elements in it. I hope and pray that others enjoy this music. I tried to create a diverse CD. Time will tell. I chose the title "The King" because that is what I am and because I am greatly offended by where my people come from......i e......slavery. I have dedicated my life to transcending this ongoing condition. I have mastered myself and one who is master of himself is king of many cities.
