No one's striving to be Miles Davis.
      Everybody's striving to get paid.
            And, you know, I want to be like Miles Davis.

 

You can find a few more videos here.

"Music sends out a vibration and that is something I take to my heart. Now I see I spent so much time trying to question and critique the outside world and now I've been forced to look at myself. But there's a great Hendrix lyric:

    I used to live in a room full of mirrors, all I could see was me. I take my spirit and I smash all the mirrors now the whole world is here for me to see, now I'm searching for my love to be.

    Broken glass was all in my brain, cats were screaming crying in my head. It used to fall out dreams and cut me in my bed, I say making love was strange in my bed...

I have been blessed to know and feel love both earthly and spiritual and I hope I am to become better with the responsibility of loving another. I have fallen short so often in my friendships, relationships and family. And while the world spins around and stars are born and die the oceans flow and the sun rises and sets now I'm clear about what it is I'm striving for.

And through love I hope to rise above the suffering that is a part of life and be more gracious to others and pray for forgiveness for the past deeds that have caused others suffering. And the music that I'm making now is just the love I've felt and the energy I'm surrounding myself with. Thoughts are the architecture of the mind. And I'm trying to fill my mind with tranquility so that I may emanate that vibration... inshallah I love and cherish the gift that the creator has given me."
