about

This is a song I wrote between '03 and '05 it tells of life without direction or hope where I was and how good it feels to really see you or me as the person I always wanted to be. When I wrote this song my family life was going down the drain and I was the termite. It was hard to face that so I looked for ways to escape that took me even deeper and farther away from the ones I love. They saw me drifting and had to do what they had to do to survive, call it tough love or a fast track in to now. 5 attempt leave life having to be brought back, The Psych wards, missing my boys grow, watching my Mom cry through seeing her son hurt himself while feeling helpless. I thought I forgot how to sing and to play the guitar and to write but that was all a lie a suggestion from the evils between my ears. I am out off to my purpose knowing it and showing it in what I do.

about

Amari Sankofa Pasadena, California

Taylor found his musical gift singing in local coffee houses and open mics; most recently at Whisky A Go Go, Round Up, and Church. Life's ups and downs have empowered Taylor's voice and musical scores with the rich acoustic sound of the steel-string guitar that capture his audience's imagination. HAIK is a beat uniquely (w)rapped in the Spirit of Love, strength and understanding. ... more
