Funk, Gospel, Blues Is All

Greed Has Driven The World Crazy. And I Think I'm Lucky That I Have A Place Over Here That I Can Call Home.

I Applied For A Scholarship To Curtis Institute Of Music In Philadelphia. I Knew I Was Good Enough, But They Turned Me Down. And It Took Me About Six Months To Realize It Was Because I Was Black. I Never Really Got Over That Jolt Of Racism At The Time.

I Think The Rich Are Too Rich And The Poor Are Too Poor. I Don't Think The Black People Are Going To Rise At All; I Think Most Of Them Are Going To Die.

Music Is The Center Of My Life.

To Be Young, Gifted And Black!
