To try and define, describe a person by the works that He –She has done is no easy feat. To state what my influences are would take a lifetime. I will just say that they are Many.
How many of us have experienced that feeling of frustration when trying to relate, convey a shared memory to an individual or a group of friends? There are times when we as Flesh are unable to find the right Words. Well right now as I pen these words that you read I am unsure of what I should state. The Ego takes full pride in misguiding mans true intention. All I can say is Music Is a Mission Not a Competition.
I am of the Element of Water - Spirit, Incarnate as Flesh experiencing a physical Reality in A World of Matter. Music and the Arts are InI Spiritual Food, Creation, Fulfilment, and Enlightenment. I am without limits and therefore without end. My musical appreciation is Iniversal and therefore without categorisation.
Like many others Singers and Players of instruments InI first musical awakenings come from I Family. At home music was everywhere. My parents both sang. The boyfriends of my sisters were either musicians or Sound System entrepreneurs so I guess I had no real choice. I follow in a long tradition.
As a teenager like any other youth in the UK I used to run street and go listen soundsystem big or small, local or Outanational I would go.
The I has been fortunate – lucky if you believe in the concept of luck to trod to many different countries all over the World. To All the people who have helped make this vibration possible I say Yanx n Praises in the name of the name of the Most High Tetragrammaton (Adam Kadmon).
