Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra delivered a brilliant concert that reminded us that jazz continues to evolve while staying firmly rooted in culture and tradition.

“For Choirboys, Church Queens, and Those Whose Sundays Stopped Too Soon” at Project Row Houses

Harrison Guy’s “For Choirboys, Church Queens, and Those Whose Sundays Stopped Too Soon” is a standout installation that confronts truths that the Black church has often refused to speak aloud. It is a sanctuary for men who carried the weight of worship on their backs while hiding the most vulnerable parts of themselves.

Major Announcement

Music has always been a part of my life, and I’ve decided to turn that passion into a new outlet for creativity and community.
​
I’m excited to share the soft launch of Mocha Man Music, a Houston-based record label, music publishing house, and artist management company.
​
I’m currently looking for artists who want to grow with a label that values development, fairness, and long-term vision. If you’re an artist looking for a label home or management support, I’d love to hear from you.
​
Our first release is an instrumental titled “X Minor,” that I produced. It’s the beginning of a catalog that will grow with intention and care.

You can follow the label on Instagram and TikTok​

We’re also forming an all-Black female alternative rock band. If you play guitar, bass, drums, or sing and want to make real music that moves people, join us.

D’Angelo Untitled, Yet Eternal When D’Angelo released Brown Sugar in 1995, I was mesmerized. His voice was smooth yet earthy, the grooves laid back but deeply intentional, and the instrumentation felt retro, but somehow futuristic. Brown Sugar, Lady, When We Get By, and his transformative version of Smokey Robinson’s Cruisin’ were invitations into a new world of sound where intimacy, vulnerability, and groove coexisted in perfect balance.
