Do you enjoy God? You know, like a good movie or a nice dinner. After a long day, you’re looking for a pleasant escape to something you enjoy. Is God at the top of your “things I enjoy the most” list? My wife was not that way for several decades. Because of her longstanding relationship with legalism, God was not as satisfying as He could have been, so other options competed for her affections. I’m not suggesting she lived in rebellion; she did not. She loved God as much as she knew how to love Him.

光を求めて – Hikari o motomete est une quête intérieure vers la lumière, celle qui éclaire sans brûler, qui guide sans imposer. 
Ce titre en japonais a été spécialement composé pour remercier mon public japonais, dont l’écoute attentive et la sensibilité m’ont profondément touché. 
Porté par une pulsation pop et une tension contemplative, il évoque le désir de clarté dans un monde fragmenté.

光を求めて - Hikari o motomete

A portrait of pressure — the noise of expectations, advice, opinions.
The music rises and falls like a restless crowd,
while a single, fragile voice tries to remain whole.
A track about resisting being rewritten.

This album is a quiet journey into identity — not the loud, public kind, but the fragile, trembling truth that grows in the dark.
Each track is a step inward, a moment of listening, a breath taken in the space between doubt and courage.

The music moves softly: warm piano, slow strings, ambient echoes.
It never rushes.
It never pushes.
It simply reveals.

These seven pieces follow the path from confusion to clarity,
from borrowed voices to the sound of one’s own heart,
from being seen to finally seeing oneself.

It is an album about silence and awakening,
about holding a truth too delicate for the world,
about walking through shadows and still choosing light.

And in the end, one whisper remains:

I live.
I breathe.
I am.

I Am the One Who Lives

Four Thousand Voices

A fragile confrontation with reflection.
This track moves through cold piano, quiet breaths, and dim light —
showing how the mirror reveals only surfaces, never the soul.
A soft rebellion against the story's glass tries to tell.

This album is a quiet journey into identity — not the loud, public kind, but the fragile, trembling truth that grows in the dark.

The Mirror Lies

A soft but decisive awakening.
This track is about finally claiming your own name after carrying too many versions of yourself.
Warm piano and gentle strings move like a breath taken before speaking the truth out loud — the moment you stop borrowing identities and start living as who you really are.

Broken Normal

Fourteen & Feedback

There are parts of us we learn to love loudly and parts we punish quietly.


This episode explores the quiet war between two internal drives, the part of us that wants to be seen and the part that wants to stay safe.
Through stories of visibility, protection, longing, and self-correction, we dive into the tension between expression and control, beauty and meaning, mind and mirror.


Not vanity vs intellect.
But longing vs protection.


This is a slower, more introspective episode, a brief moment before integration.
If you’ve ever felt two sides of you pulling in different directions, this one is for you.

Intellect vs Vanity - Episode 5

In this episode of "That Black Couple," Jenn and Daren return after a break with a discussion on the intersection of Black food and gender roles. They share personal anecdotes about their relationships with food, exploring how their upbringing shaped their culinary skills and perspectives. Then they  delve into the cultural significance of cooking within the Black community, emphasizing the need to move beyond traditional gender norms that often dictate who should prepare meals. They highlight the importance of food as a survival skill and a means of fostering community connections, particularly in light of the decline in Black farm ownership. They encourage listeners to embrace a more inclusive approach to food preparation and to recognize the spiritual and communal aspects of sharing meals. Tune in for a celebration of the richness of Black culinary heritage and the power of collective nourishment.

S8E9 - Black Food and Gender Roles

A confession. A testimony. A healing cry. 💔🔥✨
Honest Scars is a 13-track spiritual journey through the parts of ourselves we’re afraid to say out loud — the pain, the regret, the identity battles, the wounds we hide, and the God who sees every one of them.

This album was written in valleys.
In the quiet moments of regret.
In the battles no one else knew about.
In the places where healing finally broke through. 🙏

With raw lyrics, southern gospel grit, stripped-down authenticity, and soul-deep vocals, Honest Scars pulls back the curtain on hidden struggles and hard-won redemption. These songs don’t pretend. They don’t polish the pain. They tell the truth — because truth is where healing begins.

From the aching regret of “A Guilty Past” and the broken-yet-hopeful honesty of “Every Minute, Every Moment,” to the victorious declaration of “Still Standing,” this album wasn’t created to impress…
It was created to connect.
To anyone who’s carried shame.
To anyone who’s sat in silence.
To anyone still reaching for hope in the dark.

If your scars have a story… this album will speak it.
If your heart needs healing… this album will breathe it.
If you’ve walked through fire… this album will remind you you’re not alone. ✨🔥

“Dime Con Quién” is about the truth we run from.
The idea that who stands next to you… reveals who you really are.
Every face in your circle holds a piece of you — the part you hide, the part you lost, the part you’ll become.
This track is a mirror.
A reminder that your tribe, your shadows, your loyalties — they all speak louder than your words.
This isn’t about sound.
It’s about identity.
About the weight of walking with the right — or the wrong — souls.
If you listen close, you’ll hear yourself.

Dime Con Quién

© LYRICS for You Can't Change From The Outside: 

Verse 1. They sew their seeds of doubt at you. 
They question what is plainly true. 
They tell you that you're someone else  
and that they're there just to help.

Chorus: 
No more lies.
God made you who you are.
No more lies.
You can’t change from the outside. (repeat)

Verse 2. And if they fail to recruit you 
they will exploit what you're into. 
And tolerance is not their word. 
They don't want you to be heard.
 
Verse 3. When we let evil take control 
we dig ourselves into a hole. 
So set yourself apart from them 
and be yourself until the end.


You Can't Change From The Outside © D.N.W.  Original Composition.

A song about the versions of ourselves we never became — the brave one, the wild one, the one who stayed, the one who left. The Other Me drifts between memory and possibility, tracing the echoes of a life that could have been, and the quiet truth that every version still lives inside us somehow.

This track blends reflective pop with cinematic emotion, carrying you through parallel paths, missed futures, and the soft ache of recognition.

🎧 Listen if you love: dream-soaked storytelling, emotional electronic textures, alternate-universe vibes, and songs that feel like standing at a crossroads at midnight.

✨ Themes: identity, memory, parallel selves, longing, self-reflection, quiet transformation.

💬 “In some mirror, wild and free — is she dreaming now of me?”

The Other Me

This song is a dark, emotional deep dive into identity, trauma, and the painful split between who you are and who the world forces you to become. Through haunting imagery, vulnerable storytelling, and a cinematic rise in intensity, it follows a boy fractured by violence, control, and the masks he had to wear to survive. Each verse peels back another layer of his broken reflection, blurring the line between Anthony and Angel as he battles shame, memory, and the loss of his true self. It’s raw, tragic, and deeply human — a desperate search for the person still hiding beneath the damage.

SHATTERED REFLECTION

I wrote this in early 2025. It’s about stepping away from the noise of expectations and listening to your inner voice. Inspired by an experience I had camping. Before I went camping, I noticed myself getting excited for the star gazing I was about to do because the stars always shine brighter away from the city lights. I thought maybe, people, away from the expectations of what we 'should' be, away from the 'noise', also shine brighter. I loved the thought that we should be seeking out people who let themselves shine in their own way and encourage us to shine too.

Jericho Records USA – The Story Behind the Sound

Welcome to Jericho Records USA.
This isn’t a traditional label — it’s the archive of a lifetime spent writing, recording, experimenting, breaking rules, and rebuilding myself through music.

The original Jericho Records was an independent label my father started in the 1950s. What you’re hearing here is something new — my continuation of that legacy, shaped by the times, the tools, and the life I’ve lived.

I grew up in a musical home. My father ran the church music ministry, my mother played piano, and I was singing before I could read. Drums at 5. Guitar at 7. Bass. Saxophone. Piano. Songwriting became the way I made sense of the world, and I’ve written close to a thousand songs — with thousands more to come. I later graduated from Full Sail University with a degree in Audio Production, blending old-school recording with modern technology.

You’ll notice the sounds here are diverse. That’s intentional.
I create under different artist names, different styles, different worlds — but the voice behind all of it is mine.

And to be fully transparent:

• Some tracks are traditional studio recordings — real drums, real guitars, real vocals, all performed by me.
• Some tracks blend live instruments, VSTs, and AI-assisted production.
• Some began as my raw guitar or vocal recording and were “covered” or re-interpreted through AI tools.
• Some are fully AI-generated compositions created from my prompts.
• But every song — no matter the method — was written by me and comes from real experiences, real chapters of my life.

AI, to me, is another instrument — another creative partner.
It doesn’t replace my voice or my story; it helps me bring more of it into the world.

Over the years I’ve worked with incredible people, including Dez Dickerson (Prince & The Revolution) and Tim Gaines (Stryper), and I’ve shared stages with bands like Drivin’ N’ Cryin, Corey Taylor, Saving Abel, Hinder, and Avenged Sevenfold. But the journey didn’t end there — it evolved.

Jericho Records USA is where all those chapters live at once:
the human hands, the digital experiments, the scars, the healing, the imagination, and the divine spark that keeps me creating.

If you’re here, I hope you find something that resonates — something that reminds you that music, in any form, is a lifeline.

— Jericho

This is an accidentally funny podcast about the realities of Blackness and adult life. 

Our goal is to create a space for Black millennials to discuss and embody adult life on their own terms. We aren’t beholden to “traditional” gender or parenting roles, queerness is fluid and present in the ways we show up in our relationships and in the world, and we want to build community with other 30-something Black folx who are trying to figure this ish out.

We do “adult” differently. 


-About Daren and Jenn-

Jenn is a queer, Black feminist from Oakland. Daren is an introverted nerd and novelist from Anaheim.

They are boo’ed up and have been since 2002 when they bonded over a mutual love of Brian McKnight’s “Never Felt This Way”, their favorite Brandy lyrics, and nineties TV like Family Matters, Fresh Prince of Bel Air, and Living Single. It was a shared obsession with Black cultural icons, histories, and artistry that drew Jenn and Daren to one another even though they are actually completely different personality-wise.

Jenn and Daren have always said to themselves, “Wouldn’t it be cool if we had a show?” Well, no major networks have reached out yet. So, until that happens, you can find the them here, sharing their views on race and culture and everything in between.

They are young thirty-somethings who have been married since for over a decade. Jenn and Daren have three beautiful, brilliant, radical, snarky kids who play no games.

It is said that the highest vibration in the universe is gratitude... That being said my name is Niko.
