Don’t Close Your Eyes is more than just a song. It is a resolute call for awareness, an invitation to stay present with the world’s truths, and a celebration of our innate ability to seek and defend what is just, compassionate, and real. In an era where the word “woke”—once a simple plea to stay alert to the needs and struggles around us—has been twisted and politicized, this song reclaims its original spirit: awake, aware, alive to the richness and pain of our shared humanity.  The cultural moment demands a song like Don’t Close Your Eyes. Amidst voices that seek to divide, the song stands as a bridge—a reminder that awareness is not something to be feared, but embraced. It reaches toward those who have been discouraged from caring, those who feel overwhelmed by the noise, and those searching for hope amid uncertainty.

An Anthem for the Ages: “More Than a Month”
Imagine a song whose melody rises like sunlight breaking through morning clouds—a chorus that echoes in halls, classrooms, and city streets, declaring with unshakable conviction that Black history is not confined to the calendar’s narrow margins. “More Than a Month” is a celebration of resilience, brilliance, and unity—a soaring tribute that affirms the glory of a story whose chapters are too numerous, too vibrant, too essential to be bound in a month of time.  “More Than a Month” is a promise to honor the fullness of stories—pain and joy, struggle and victory—because honesty is the highest form of respect.  It’s not about measuring greatness by comparison to others, but by the courage of contribution, the grace of remembering, and the conviction to keep building a better tomorrow.

The Birth of a Cultural Milestone
Music is the heartbeat of culture—a force that captures the essence of shared experience, expresses hope, and galvanizes celebration. People everywhere recognize Christmas anthems and Hanukkah melodies, but Kwanzaa has remained musically underrepresented. This song changes the narrative as the first urban-contemporary anthem dedicated to Kwanzaa, and by giving the holiday its own signature sound!  “It’s Kwanzaa Time” is tailor-made for urban, R&B, adult contemporary, and holiday playlists. Its lively groove and heartfelt message fit perfectly into December rotations. Filling a gap, “It’s Kwanzaa Time” has made history for over 30 years by providing a soundtrack that resonates with the realities, dreams and reaffirmed values of contemporary listeners.
