Stuck In The Black

HI, I'm a professional guitarist turn singer. I've worked with Jay-Z on his American Gangster album with Grind Music (intro "Pray" feat. Beyonce), Musiqsoulchild, Estelle, Lyfe Jennings, Avant, Talib Kweli and others, but I had a life changing experience that pushed me to let my own voice out. I was diagnosed with a genetic defect, an angioma in my brain to be specific. It was hemorrhaging and causing seizures, I nearly lost my life. As I lay there on the operating table, I thought to myself, " I really don't have any regrets". But, as the anesthesia began to set in, I thought to myself, "You never made a record". So, as soon as I was healthy and able I set out to make this EP "Stuck In The Black". Its about my ordeal, dealing with the situation, the pain, the helplessness and depression while simultaneously losing my girlfriend at the time. It was a dark place, thus the name. So please listen to my story.
