The Night I Stripped Away the Armor: The true story behind “Faithful Friend”
There are moments in life where everything that seems to be a priority, . . . things that draw the attention suddenly falls quiet, forcing you to look directly inward. Many years ago, I hit one of those crossroads. I was navigating a heavy season of life that stripped away all the usual noise and left me standing face-to-face with my own vulnerabilities, my mistakes, and my faith.
I remember sitting down with no agenda, no strict rules, and no overthinking about the melody, chords or lyrics. I didn’t want to just make a track; I needed to dig into the deepest part of my soul to create something that could truly express what I was feeling.I wrote this song too many years ago to count. I was going through a period of life that prompted me to dig deeper into my soul and create
a song to truly "express" without worrying about the flow or structure of the song. I recently re-released it with a new vibe. These lyrics are as authentic as it gets.
"Creating music for the soul and mature hearts."

Every song begins somewhere—a moment, a memory, a person, a loss, a dream, or an unexpected spark of inspiration. These are the stories behind the music that became the soundtrack of my journey.
Thank you for listening and allowing these songs to become part of yours.

R&B - WHAT AM I TO DO? - The Story Behind The Music: This song was inspired while I was scrolling through some of my older tracks. I remember daydreaming about an old crush I had back in the day. A melody popped into my head and I just hummed it over and over again. The simple line ... "What am I to do, cause' I'm missing you?" became the root and the rest flowed from there. Something soulful, smooth and melodic. Every song has a story. This is mine.

R&B - A MOTHER KNOWS - (For A Mother Knows). The Story Behind The Music: This song was inspired by a friend who shared the tender and sweet memories of her mother and the positive impact on her life. This hit my heart as I thought about my own mother, and decided to dedicate this song to all the mothers in the world who instill unity, wisdom, faith, strength and above all love into the hearts and minds of their children. Not simply by words, but by being a living example. This song is dedicated to you. Every song has a story. This is mine.

LATIN SOUL - “Me Gusta Tu Tipo” - The Story Behind The Music: I wrote Me Gusta Tu Tipo after thinking about those rare moments when someone catches your attention instantly. Before you've exchanged a single word, there's already a spark and your imagination begins writing the story. I wanted to capture that feeling through a blend of Latin rhythm, soul, and romance. Every song has a story. This is mine.

R&B - What's This Thing Called Love? - The Story Behind The Music: All the recording tools in the world won't matter if there's no authentic creativity, no experiences to write about and no muse to inspire you. This song was inspired by a beautiful woman that I shared a journey of love with. My muse. It was a paradox of emotions that are revealed in lyrics of contrast. Every song has a story. This is mine.

R&B Version - "I'll Be Waiting For You" - The Story Behind The Music: I can't forget the period of time when COVID-19 first hit. By the time we knew what was really happening we all knew someone that had lost close friends and family. It was a global event but it hit close to home. My niece passed away after suffering complications from COVID. This song is dedicated to all those who lived through the experience and those we lost. Every song has a story. This is mine.

R&B - "Time After Time" - The Story Behind The Music: It was one of those sunny, cloudless beach days and I was feeling great. This beat and visual storyline popped in my head about how we can accidently find ourselves in a setup. A setup where someone catches our eyes or we catch their's just by being in the right place at the right time, coincidently. Or is it really just a dream? Every song has a story. This is mine.

Latin Romantic Ballad - "Yo Quiero Ver" - The Story Behind The Music: When it comes to writing Latin love ballads It's for certain a challenge for me. When the melodies and concepts drop into my spirit I then have to sort out just how I'm going to blend the lyrics to rhyme in Spanish. I knew exactly what wanted to express..."I Want To See You", but in a soulful way. Her eyes, her smile, her laughter and her touch. This song represents that desire. Every song has a story. This is mine.

R&B - "You Got Me Thinking" - The Story Behind The Music: When friendship, romance, attraction and love blend perfectly together there's this one-of-a-kind connection that can't be denied. It doesn't happen often, but there's this unexplainable magnetic bond that can draw two people together. Both feeling, and thinking they'd be good together. I found myself reflecting on those rare connections where friendship naturally evolves into something deeper. Every song has a story. This is mine.

Latin Dance - "Dame Besos Eterno" - The Story Behind The Music: Inspired by a muse. I was in Latin America and developed a close friendship with a very sweet and caring woman. We didn't have a romantic relationship. Perhaps it could have been but instead we maintained a platonic bond, . . . no "besos". Yet, it's memorable she wrote me a tender poem one day with caring words of endearment. That stuck in my mind and so later I composed this song as a dedication to her. Every song has a story. This is mine.

Pop Version - "I'll Be Waiting For You" - The Story Behind The Music: I can't forget the period of time when COVID-19 first hit. By the time we knew what was really happening we all knew someone that had lost close friends and family. It was a global event but it hit close to home. My niece passed away after suffering complications from COVID. This song is dedicated to all those who lived through the experience and those we lost. Every song has a story. This is mine.

R&B - "So Very High" - The Story Behind The Music: In 2007, while visiting friends in The Bahamas, I shared an instrumental track I had composed called Living Free. It had a smooth vibe, but after that night I put it on the shelf and moved on to other projects. Years later, while working with my brother and Sadiq from his former band, I revisited the track. They immediately connected with it. My brother added keyboard arrangements, Sadiq crafted a new set of lyrics, recorded vocals, and contributed additional tracks. Together, we transformed Living Free into So Very High. It's a reminder that sometimes a song isn't finished when you first write it. Sometimes it waits for the right people, the right moment, and the right creative energy to bring it fully to life. Every song has a story. This is mine.

R&B - "What's This Thing Called Love" - The Story Behind The Music: Tamacage sung this version. I just had to write the musical question a lot of us are still trying to figure out! The idea popped into my mind as I was looking back at past relationships and trying to define what each of us learned from the experience. There are so many facets, so many levels, so many dynamic layers of emotions it's often difficult to describe. That unanswered question is what inspired this song. Every song has a story. This is mine.
