- Troy Barnett, the founder, CEO, and president of Phat Barz Records & Multimedia started playing music at the age of 10. His first instrument was the trumpet. Through high school he expanded his talent and skill to the entire brass family of instruments while gaining gigging experience with the Young Professional Musicians of Houston (Young Sounds Of Houston). At the age of sixteen he organized his own five member jazz band; they began performing in jazz clubs throughout the city of Houston, TX. Summer months were spent participating and studying in the Summer Jazz Workshop conducted annually by the late Professor Conrad Johnson, Bubba Thomas, Kyle Turner, Joe Sample, Barry Hall (Director-Duke Ellington Orchestra), and others on the campuses of St. Thomas and Texas Southern Universities. He later taught himself to play the organ and the piano before attending Texas Southern and Sam Houston State Universities. He is a member of the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP), the Writers Guild of America, and a Master Mason. He has played for many regional and national recording artists such as Kim Burrell-Young, Mark Gordon and Eternal Life Ministries, Charles Tyrone, Darius Brooks (Musical Director of the late Rev. Milton Brunsons Thompson Community Singers), Adrian Medearis and GODS Anointed People (GAP), Shawn McClemore, and has even shared the stage with Wynton Marsalis and Dr. Shirley Caesar. Troy presses to encourage young people of all ages, musicians AND non-musicians, that success is not in notoriety, but believing in and unleashing ones own abilities. He has provided musical accompaniment for the Missy Chu Childrens Book entitled, "What Color Is Monday?", and the theme song for the Historically Black College Queens Workshop' entitled, "All Hail The Queen". He currently mentors and tutors young musicians in the urban areas of Houston, TX. He has recently completed co-production of a Latin/Pop/R&B project with the immensely talented youth based super-group "Soulsa Caliente" of the Diaz Music Institute.
His first project was the original music soundtrack for Tamar Productions inspirational tour show, "For Your Souls Sake",
written by Mary Terry Wiley. www.tamarentertainment.com
His latest album, "I'm Not Him" features Raw Energy. These are young musicians that are dedicated to the progression of the art of music!

A little prayer for strength for the coming week...............
Please untie the knots thjat are in my mind, my heart and my life. Remonve the nots and the cannot and do nots that i have in my heart. Release me from the could nots and should nots that obstruct my life. and most of all God, I ask you to remove from my heart and life all of the am nots that i have allowed to hold me back especially the thoughts that i am not good enough.
The more a man knows......, the more he forgives. ...A loving heart is the truest wisdom. By associating with wise people you will become wise yourself. ....Someone you meet by chance can bring you a new perspective on old challenges. ...It is very important that you always stay focused and allow one door of happiness to close for the right door to open for you. Don't concetrate so much on the closed door that you don't see the New Door that is opened for you.
something that i read the other day which i thought was so true, so i thought i share it with you.....We have invented time to feel secure that we can predict life. That clock is merciless, beating out seconds at a constant rate, ignoring the natural changing rhythms of our minds and our bodies. And so we are constantly trying to speed up or slow down. Give yourself a break for a change, - put away that watch for a couple of days and settle into your own natural rhythm

Sometimes in life, we just need someone who believes that we can. And more importantly, we must have the guts to believe we can. Yes, We sometimes get knocked down by our circumstances and situations, people run off and the thing that we want does not give the impression to want us. But it is in those times when all hope is gone that our understanding must raise its beautiful head. We can make it. It may not be easy, fast or rational but in the blink of an eye or a snap of our fingers, things can turn around.

Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.
