Desmond is one of a kind. I have worked with many people in music, but none will care more about your progress than Desmond. It’s never criticism with him; it’s always constructive feedback. I felt comfortable sharing my deepest writings with him. Since we started working together, my progress has been immeasurable. I highly recommend Desmond for anyone who is starting out in the game or has been rapping for a while but wants to get better.

You conducted a Youtube live stream coaching session a few weeks back where I introduced myself and freestyled for a bit. The feedback that I received was incredibly valuable and helped me create a lot of new music. I took the idea of allowing myself to be "wack" to heart and decided that I needed to be vulnerable which is rooted in imperfection. That's when I started a series on Facebook and IG called Project Freestyle. Since then, I've seen so much growth and development in my artistry and I have you to thank for that. It's important for me to share this content with you so you can see the results of your contribution.

I still can't believe it!
Even as a dad, husband, and teacher, I rap professionally. I perform as a solo artist and with my band Speaker Minds. I have published a collection of rap verses. I am recognized as a teacher of freestyling and emceeing.
And if you told me that I would become a freestyle rap and emceeing teacher, back when I was in High School, I would have said you're crazy.
Because in high school, I wanted to rap. I wanted to freestyle. But, I was extremely scared to rap. I didn't know what to rap about. I didn't like my voice. I thought my life was just too boring to write about. In high school, the struggles of my life were about passing quizzes, not surviving street life.
I was a shy teen with a lack of self-confidence, so I believed I could not brag about anything. Even if I liked my voice, who would want to hear what I have to say?
Fully convinced I would just be making beats, I started performing spoken word poetry at Friday Night open mics during my college years at Fisk University. One Friday night open mic session, my life changed.
I found myself in the parking lot. The other poets circle up, and they began freestyling. I was in the circle with them, and all of a sudden, all the fear and doubt holding me back from freestyle rapping finally lifted.
I freestyled confidently and felt the rush and joy of creating rhymes off the top of your head. I can say this was the moment when I became an Emcee. This is the moment I realized I am on my journey to master the craft of rap.
