Comment on Kathy Taylor | I Believe (New Music Video)

2010-03-11T18:25:34Z

This is some of the most wonderful displays of talent that I have ever heard. This article, which is beautifully written, portrays not only a lovely, talented artist, but a dedicated child of God, who is inspiring and uplifting. She uses her talents to touch so many for Christ's precious name's sake and to be a messenger for Him as well. Along with the numerous other benefit's of Kathy's music and God given talent, I must say that I am so thankful to have had this opportunity to be a sister in Christ and it would be an honor to meet her.

Comment on Don Cheadle Gets Family's Blessing to Play Miles Davis in Upcoming Biopic

I actually thought Wesley Snipes was going to play the role. Wesley has shown some skills in jazz from Spike Lee's 'Mo Betta Blues' with Denzel Washington. Spike Lee would do justice to Miles Davis.

My son,Ron Baxter, took me to see Terence,last week in Chapel Hill N.C.(UNC). It was one of the best jazz shows I've seen in along time, he and his band were great. I have always loved his music, but to see him in person, well thats even greater. By the way Ron interview Terence the day before the show. MR T keep up the good work.

Comment on Sade Releases 'Soldier Of Love' | Feb. 9th, 2010

2010-02-26T01:17:30Z

Anyone who has followed the career of this beautiful lady knows that she is one of the most consistent artist in the game. Even after a ten year exile, Sade returns to do music simply and purposefully her way ... which as you know, is rare by any definition in the music industry. Funny thing, I just read a short article moments ago in reference to Sade being 50, in the writers eyes she looks like the new 20 . Being in my mid-fifties, I love it! Kudos to the Queen of the pop music culture, she's stunning, fabulous and mesmerizing. I'm truly elated with her return and success.

The "Solider of Love" the single blows me away it's absolutely funky ... great comeback for Sade this sound by her is dressed with a pulsing cadence of intoxicating and funky rhythms. Tasty!

Comment on Ledisi | Higher Than This (New Music Video)

2010-02-24T22:27:18Z

Yeah, my girl Ledisi can seriously croon. No doubt, she is in a class by herself among the fleet of newcomers on music the scene. She's unquestionably the real deal, the lady got swagger, a diamond in the ruff (rough), solid performer, a vocalist with dexterity, a raw soul singer with longevity which is rare for the R&B genre these days!
