Music makes the world go round!


One month shy of graduating UCLA and a move to DC, my friend Justin asked if I wanted to join him and his friend, Logan, as they made music, I decided to check it out. Now two years later, we have continued to make music.

Here are the first songs that we have uploaded thus far.

Putting the past in the past


I’ve always been a firm believer of using every step of my past and building on it, even if certain things seem insignificant, I attempt to use their concepts, skills or ideas and transcribe them into ways that can be used in a beneficial manner. As of late, I feel as though the things I’ve achieved, things I’ve learned, the places I’ve been and to a certain extent, some of the people I’ve met have gradually become extraneous even expendable. Perhaps, this is something we all go through as we are rediscovering or establishing a new set of values and standards for the life we want to lead. Essentially, the perception that we developed as children, then as adolescents and then as young adults is constantly under revision, so maybe it is normal for our values to continually shift. Maybe sometimes we have to forget our past to assure our future.

Be thankful

I was having a conversation with a new friend concerning life, destiny, fate and the potential that we have within us. It was interesting to hear him reinforce this philosophy that I have guided myself with or attempt to be guided by. Essentially, we share this idea that we have the power to manufacture our own destiny through our actions or inactions. I know this is a bit controversial as there are a lot of circumstances that would inhibit someone from tapping into varies opportunities but I firmly believe that if you put all your energy into what you want, you can create the life that you desire no matter how difficult it maybe. Of course, hard work is essential to the fruition of your target but further, one must be thankful for what one does have because whatever your creed is or isn’t, if you are not grateful for what you have, why would anyone want to give you more?!.
