This doesn't sound like much, it connected me with a part of myself that was lost in the poverty stricken environment in which I was being raised. For many African-Americans, the south is as far back as their roots go. To get me to Howard University and now to Seton Hall University at age 23, this was enough. This connection to my past has also nurtured a passion for music. Writing songs is not only theraputic, but it gives me a voice to the world that reaches them at any single moment they feel like listening to music.
Songs are the soundtracks to life.
