Have you ever had a notebook that you wrote everything in? A reminder to call someone, a phone number that's changed, a note to read something inspirational or simply a great idea? That's what THE BLACK BOOK is about.
It is more than just a book, a diary, an agenda, a phone book or a glossary. It's the place where the mental notes, important details and words of wisdom have manifested themselves into songs. These are lessons that I've learned and lessons that were taught to me through the experiences of mine and of others.
Each of my previous albums have been little black books; however, this is THE BLACK BOOK. Even though this is my 3rd album, due to success of REVIVAL, this feels more like my sophomore release.
I was ready to grow creatively but this would mean taking complete control of my artistic expression. It was time for a new sound, a new look and to expose the other side of my personality. The side you won’t see on TV but rather the side you will feel when listening to THE BLACK BOOK. I was ready to step outside of my comfort zone and challenge myself to expand as a writer, an artist, a producer and a performer.
Instead of waiting for when to start my new record, I concerned myself with how and promptly went about forming a production team called TriFecta Music Group with YoungPete Alexander and Kellis Parker Jr. Stepping into the role of co-producer on THE BLACK BOOK made it easier to manage time. The process was this; we studied the legendary musical relationship between Quincy Jones, Rod Temperton and the late Michael Jackson and created the songs at home. We brought only the worthy ones into the studio for tweaking and often recorded as many as three songs in a day. Our mandate is ‘if it doesn’t give you chills, it’s not in the will.’”
So is THE BLACK BOOK going to take my fans by surprise? Of course it will. A pleasant surprise that is! It’s Dance, it’s Urban, It’s Rock, it’s DURBAN ROCK! It is 38 minutes of music for the people. At the least, songs like Running will leave you feeling liberated. The Plan will mend your wounded heart. Recalculate will help you let it go and Glass Ceiling will inspire you to accomplish whatever your aspirations may be.
It took 31 years to realize that ‘the song writing isn't always about living, it's also about successfully telling the story’ and everyone loves a great story…
