Voices & Photo Politely Stolen

Burn this Bitch Down Featuring  Lesley McSpadden, Louis Head & The Dreamers in Ferguson

Percussion Laden  - hopefully the mix sounds better. I'm working on mixing

Congo Square

Lost In Time

A bit of Paulinho da Costa  meets James Baldwin 

The Nature of The Problem As I See It (It's So Complex)

Don't judge my genre selection. I have no idea what genre this is.

 I would love suggestions in case you stumbled upon the tag and had that wayward lost feeling inside. 

Malibu

The timing just doesn't work but I have to let it go to grow. 

Don't Make Me

The drum track is asynchronous & out of tune as all get out. Don't ask me why I liked the dissonance.  A funny thing about me.  I want to create to boom bap DJ Premier and Marley Marl hip hop but every time I create, these ambient sounds & movie/tv quotes draw me in. 

Old Fashioned Meter

Tinkerbell

Michael Eric Dyson speaks on the effects of President Obama's presidency on Black people in the United States.  

Unfortunately the stems are gone so I can't correct the repetitive verse (I would change the chord progression now) and strange bridge (I have no idea what I was thinking). 

The Ceiling of Hope & Possibility featuring Michael Eric Dyson

The lack of a mix is messy.  I need to lift the vocal  above the other track. It's also slightly offbeat which I sort of love.  Unfortunately I no longer have the stems so I can't fix the tracking nor the vocals (which need some eq'n).  It's really muddy but I love the poem. I think I may record it again saying the poem first then adding music to it.
