I was born June 16,1974 in Baltimore city (The city that reads). I was blessed to be born to wonderfully loving parents. The Creator couldn't have given me to a better pair. I have two older brothers, an older sister, and a younger sister.
I always felt the music of poetry since the day I was born. Having grown up listening to some of the greatest musical artist such as:
The Manhattans
Barry White
Marvin Gaye
Minnie Rippleton
Earth, Wind,and Fire
The Commadores
The Four Tops
Gladys Knight and The Pips
Stephany Mills
Aretha Franklin
Teddy Pendergras (Turn Dem Damn Lights out)
The Staple Singers
Quincy Jones
Miles Davis
Asford and Simpson
Prince
Patti Labelle
Denise Williams
On into the artist of today who are a constant inspiration to me.
Jill Scott
Erykah Badu
Goapele
Vivian Green
Alicia Keys
India Irie
Me'shell Ndegeocello
The list of artist could go on, but then I really could not give details about me. Anyway,
I started out writting little bubble gum poetry when I was in junior high school about that boy I had a crush on two rows in front of me in English class. As I grew older and experienced more of the trials of life my poetry has become more true to life and displays glimpses into my soul. Some non-believers say that poetry is usless, but poetry has been a stress reliever and that silent friend that listens when you have to vent. Now I am here to share my soul with you.
