MUSIC IS LIFE.
I was vocalizing to the new track that we did with Ely B. and THE NEW
BAND. Yup, we will have a new band. An album of music, a documentary
movie, a foundation, yes all of these will happen. AND I WAS VOCALIZING
WHILE TRANSFUSING A PACK OF RBC,
I still hear the voices of Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Tupac Shakur,
Kurt Cobain, The Notorious B.I.G. and Frank Sinatra to name a few. And
their voices rise from their graves.
I am lucky to have been a recording artist and one day when I leave
this world, just like the names I mentioned, my voice will be heard.
Always. At a touch of a button or switch, I am "alive" again.
In essence music is life. Music is immortality.
