Originally “Decided” this was a track from @realtensei vault that was resurrected by Kramer and @yaws_world years later during a session. @awon1988 just happened to jump on and it turned into a nice ode to love for our significant others. Later on, I played extra pianos on top. Bass, drums @kingmidaswells Piano @whoiskramer Horns @samthousand Singing @yaws_world Emceeing @awon1988 Engineer / mix @damuthefudgemunk Arranged by @whoiskramer Produced by @realtensei / @whoiskramer Out now via @defpresse / @republicofmusic #chicago #maine #soul #hiphop #rnb #jazzhop #symphonic #movietheme #classic #awon #yaw #kramer #tensei

i can’t remember when i was this small and this big and all free, faster than my safety valve in search of nothing and all awestruck when i found it- a teacher indeed.

What a beautiful night at @elasticarts Brother @marvintate1959 was honored! I got to sing my songs and perform with some amazing folk: Thank you @lindseysharpie and @violinistcaite for your excellence. The way you lift the music off the page is unparalleled. @leroybachmusic thank you for being a generous partner with your talent and warmth over the years. You truly are a gift. @counterfeitmadison I’m so happy that Marvin introduced us. You’ve literally changed my life. You’ve been nothing but a blessing and I pray that we can keep this synergy for many years past my imagination. Oh and @ds_roti_trini_cuisine definitely turned it out with the food! The Best Trini food in Chicago. No competition. No Cap. lol. ✊🏾❤️✊🏾
