Happy Saturday to EVERYONE!!!!
Specifically to all my “DfW Creatives” which includes musicians , singers, DJ’s, MC’s, dancers, actors/actresses, producers, artists, poets, managers, barbers, make up artists, venue owners, stylists etc… or simple just anyone doing creative/entertaining art in the metroplex. Please save this date ‘NOVEMBER 18th’ …
I’d like to have a sit down with everyone to check in as a community. We can call it the ‘Meeting of Great Minds’ . Sort of like a town hall meeting were we all can have freedom to speak freely in an organized space. I will spearhead much needed conversations to bridge the gaps between the many generations in one area. There will be a panel discussion and Q&A as well were , we will address and bring awareness to our mental health as well as the physical health, also in which we all learn things we may not know about the history of our city/metroplex , stategically how to raise the pay for working artists in the metroplex , how to work better not only w/each other but the clubs and venues in an appropriate integral but respectful and professional space, and of course many other topics and discussions.
We did this decades ago with some of the now late greats Omar Jahwarand Shaun Martin ,,,, myself , RC Williams , Geno Young, Gino LockJohnson Iglehart and a few others and had a very effective and meaningful fellowship..
Our local community and abroad has been through a lot in the last few years and grief has settled heavily amongst us all . I think it’s time we start the process of a collective healing .
We won’t take up a lot of your time . In fact we will seek to do this often . Stay tuned and I’ll drop the time and location .. Tap in with me in the comments if you are interested in coming together.
Thanks for taking the time to read..
