Arriving on a starship fueled by his own, very special, commixture of pure love and fabulousness Supahero GoGo Star (S.H.G.G.S.) gaily drop anchor on this third rock from the sun and bring to us mutant messages from outer space. S.H.G.G.S is the Extra Terrestrial that mankind has, for generations, accused of surveying human behavior. Barbarellaman is a response -finally- to those ETI signals Earthlings have been radiating in hopes of making contact with their future selves. Barbarellaman (Freamon Barney Von Chavous) leads the suite and go boldly with bop guns, savoir-faire, and shiny shenanigans where no act has gone before.
Electro-Disco-Funk best describes their sound as they fuse arresting dance beats, righteous compositions and soul stirring narratives that are delivered with evangelical fervor. As the featured vocalist/storyteller on the newHsoul endeavor, “New Soil” and the upcoming Supahero GoGo Star album, Barbarellaman is most certainly an intergalactic crusader. Audiences willingly travel with him to an alternate reality where love, peace, light, sensuality and the cosmic amalgamate and where singularity is conceivable. Freamon Barney Von Chavous as Barbarellaman is an adorable and provocative rhetorician that leaves an indelible impression on the mind of any witness to the spectacular. The antics of Sun Ra, The Parliament-Funkadelic, Ziggy Stardust, Sylvester, and Grace Jones are obvious influences as S.H.G.G.S suck you through a worm hole, into a world that you will most certainly buy into. Strongly influenced by the dawn of dance music and the theatrics of early Funk and Glam Rock the musical missives are delivered with operatic fanfare.
Born and raised in Detroit, Freamon is absolutely the essence of Soul with a serious twist. His vocals are quite rooted in Gospel and R&B music as the branches of his styling reach out toward uncharted territories to become something strange yet beautiful. Freamon Barney Von Chavous creates colorful, multi-textured landscapes that you see with you ears as his parables are delivered with the eloquence of a preacher man offering food for thought while remaining buoyant and sanguine. A funk fed vocal sensitivity, a diverse cast of players within and a vivid imagination is the inspiration behind Supahero GoGo Star. Freamon Barney Von Chavous is a vessel –a starship- commanded by Barbarellaman and influenced by a motley crew of personas that work together progressively -and sometimes in discord- in order to reach Singularity; the final destination. S.H.G.G.S vocals are layered in such a way that one is most certain to experience the community of characters that live inside the mind of Freamon Barney Von Chavous. Like George Clinton, and Bjork he becomes an army of “Me” on a mission to balance the light with the dark; the yin with the yang and to bring men, women, children, animals and plants together, in harmony, to celebrate living, learning and being One Nation under a groove.
Working to continue the momentum of newHsoul Freamon Barney Von Chavous and J. Loverman are at it again in order to create the opportunity to bring Superhero GoGo Star to musical life. Fascinated by “the hero’s journey”, science fiction and fantasy, Supahero GoGo Star, Barbarellaman and Freamon Barney Von Chavous, fashion a reality where super heroes save themselves flamboyantly and encourage other souls to take the road less traveled in the name of Love, Peace and The Beat.

From the minds of the amazing, sultry songstress Bliss and visionary producer Behn…we present Shooting Starz… Shooting Starz is a wondrous, mythological, fantastic love tale. Bliss utilizes her unique mellow, smooth voice to create a beautifully eclectic sound. Behn’s next-level production combined with the “Isley-esque” guitar skills of Kiva provides a psychedelic, new wave ride through the lands of rock, funk, and alternative music. Enjoy.
Hello Johnny and Freamon! A 2009 wish that things will happen personally and globally to set things right for us all! I also have to tell you that I love the rough cuts of your latest music. I find that the "I am the light, I am the love, I am the power..." gets stuck in my head. Freamon, we should catchup again soon. It was wonderful talking with you earlier this month. Happy New Year! Love love love, Theodora
