The Real Thing

Taffy (feat. DJ Kid Koala)

"The voice of an angel with the skill of Billie Holiday" (Mira Sorvino, Academy Award-Winning Actress)

"The most exciting artist since Prince" (Natan Press, The Deli)

"Funky & exciting, a voice taking us in the right direction" (Maysa Leak, Grammy-Nominated Artist)

"Press play and fall in soulful-nerd love with…Kenny Wesley" (Sun Singleton, Ebony Magazine)

"Kenny’s tenor is Hathaway deep, Luther warm and, in terms of color, could only be described as golden. Truly an anointing moment whenever he and a microphone cross paths" (Gordon Chambers, Grammy Award-Winning Singer/Songwriter)

"One of the most promising independent artists on the scene today. Possessing a resonant and versatile voice…He dazzled the audience with his tone and range, sliding into low notes skipping into highs. Remarkably, he has a gift of scat with an uncommon musicality" (Michael Lewis, SoulMusic.com)

"Kenny’s four octave range and quirky accessibility held the audiences’ attention captive with its plunging low tones, soaring high notes and mastered control…His songs took its listeners on a journey through love’s perils and triumphs; their breath hung on every note" (Andrea McPherson, Examiner)
