Putting this moment into words is hard for me.

This is my home, “Fellowship Hall”. A place where newcomers are always welcome. A place to call home. A place of connection and love. This isn’t a party, it’s communion with God and others!

This is the first of many moments of joy. Bron from the experience of ’90s churches and the vision of being completely free. The idea of “not playing both sides” but of being completely planted in the middle. For someone who loves to praise and shout and Lean wit it Rock wit it 😂. A place where you are seen completely. For those of us who grew up spending all Sunday in church!

You are welcome here, see you at the next one.

Finally getting down time since last June and I’m loving it!

A lot of fun things happening this June, I’ll do my best to share it all!

I want to give a big thank you to for providing all the tea cups, tea coaster, wash bowl and tea leaves holders!

Partnering with them made the dinner so much better.

Cody and I talk often about the similarities between the food and music - they’re cut from the same cloth.

The art of making the simple extraordinary.

Tea Time With Twlv Family Tea Dinner

1. Some of the closest and most important people in my life

2. The Aunties / God’ Moms:

I have known .naba since I was fr 15 years old ( fr a kid). Frfr an Og. Someone who has loved me, cared for me and celebrates my family and I.

the God mom to my oldest, old housemate and my actual dawg. From doing back yard shows, 10 people shows and sold out shows in multiple states. We really locked in fr.

A real one! one of the most stubborn people I know, and that’s a beautiful thing because she brings the same attitude to loving me, no matter what. Someone I know who always is gonna ride for me 🤝🏾.

3. The God father:

one of the most suave and creatively brilliant people I know. Someone who has always made space and time for me even if he didn’t have it to give. In His on words “ I’d split my last chicken nugget with you”. I don’t eat chicken nuggets but you get it 😂.

4. MY WIFE:

I ain’t gonna say much cause it’s none of yalls business but those who know, know and that’s all that matters.

5. The Twins ( as some people call them)
prattt more than just one of the twins but someone who has personally stuck by me even when I was trippin 😂. We lived together were in each other’s weddings AND he and his amazing wife trust me to DJ’ed their wedding. If you know him and that’s no small thing! A passion creative in so many fields and a brother I love.

Big Dawg. Someone’s whose dreams I’d do anything I can to make a reality. Someone who is actively using his gifts and talents to make My Dreams a reality. I wouldn’t be have the places I am without him. I love you 4L.

6. The chefs:

to eat a meal made by Cody’s hands is to taste a piece of heaven!

a kindred spirit, who is light years ahead of the curve. A constant joy to be around.

6b. The videography:
black didn’t get his own clip cause he was to busy making the clips 😂. Without him there would be no visuals to hold on to and share with the world. He has given life to the things I create. He is one of the reason more than half of you follow me now!
