Powered By Black History: James Brown
Today, as always, we pay homage to Soul Brotha #1/The Godfather of Soul/Mr. Dynamite otherwise known as James Brown! He rose from the deepest of hard times to achieve historic stardom. He started in the Deep South trying to escape poverty. He was imprisoned for a supposed attempted auto theft and eventually ended up performing in jail. As fate would have it, he was discovered and assisted by Bobby Byrd […]
Powered By Black History: Louis Armstrong
Mr. Louis Daniel “Stachmo” Armstrong may very well be the most influential figure in the history of Black, and therefore, American music (shouts to Scott Joplin).

Spellbound by Joe Sample
Spellbound by Joe Sample - !!!! With Jazz especially, words cannot adequately describe or express the creative exchange of vibes. Still, I’ll give it a shot. Joe Sample’s Spellbound is Winter for me, but not cold. It actually provides warmth, comfort, and hope for Baydestrians as we navigate January. It’s a way to stay focused, proud and confident while I anxiously await the Spring thaw. Although Joe is from Houston, […]
