Lyrics :

Sex Machine 

[Verse]
Got a rhythm in my bones tonight
Electric pulses taking flight
Can’t stop moving
Can’t stay still
My body’s a rocket
Bending at will

[Chorus]
I’m a sex machine
Oh yes I am
Built to groove
No master plan
Turn me on
I’ll never cool
I’m a sex machine
Breaking every rule

[Verse 2]
Sweat’s dripping
I’m a blazing fuse
Every step’s got nothing to lose
Heart’s pounding
Beat’s in control
I’m a locomotive with a burning soul

[Bridge]
Push the button
Feel the heat
Crank it up
Can’t take a seat
Wheels are turning
Never rest
This machine’s built to be the best

[Chorus]
I’m a sex machine
Oh yes I am
Firing up like a battering ram
Turn me on
I’ll never cool
I’m a sex machine
Breaking every rule

Sex Machine

This album comes from the afternoons when my grandfather picked me up from school in his Windstar. Detroit passed by the windows as we drove across the city to pick up my grandmother from work, sometimes stopping at Eastern Market for ice cream, sometimes grabbing food in the RenCen. The one constant was smooth jazz on V98.7 playing in the background, my grandfather lightly drumming along as we waited outside "old" Karmanos.

The sound of this album lives inside those memories. These songs carry that feeling forward through the way I create now, with technology that allows me translate those memories into music. Mixing nostalgia with a few modern twists, blending Motown drums with a hint of salsa for my mom on "Motown in Havana", and capturing my father-in-law Fast Freddy's hustling spirit on "Freddy on the Scene", this project brings different shades of smooth jazz together through my own interpretation.

This album is my way of honoring family and the city that raised me, a smooth jazz Detroit story told through the eyes of the boy riding in the passenger seat.
