Hey Everybody.

I have great news. After many months of tabulating the votes of the EL Paso Modeling contest, my cousin Charmaine officially won the contest. She will be featured on the fashion magazine of the EL Paso paper; will receive a free portfolio, and a commercial spot for a local company.

Thanks to all who supported her.

I'll talk to you guys later!

What does George Clooney, Don Cheadle, Jennifer Lopez, to name a few have in common with me. Well, we have worked with Keith Loneker. I'll explain the connection but I want to help promote his upcoming movie Leatherheads starring George Clooney; so go out and support this movie!

While recording my album at his 5150 Studios in Lawrence, KS, in 2002; I forged a great relationship by producing many of his local acts on my studio project that included such acts as Grammy group Sounds of Blackness. He also supported my efforts to attract additional talent for my studio project by co-judging a Midwest Talent Search at the Holiday Inn Express ballroom. 

I'll talk to you guys later.

Music Editors from CD Baby have "hand-picked some great albums for people who like Timbaland & Magoo, The Neptunes, The Beats." In all three categories, they have unanimously ranked the BZP Presents: Da Gumbo Vol. 1 album #1 if you like Timbaland & Magoo (90+ artists); #1 if you like The Beats (60+ artists; and #2 if you like The Neptunes (120+ artists). 

We would like to thank the staff at CD Baby for this distinction. 

I'll talk to you guys later.

I have contracted the services of Brown Bear Audio to build a state-of-the-art production studio with full recording capabilities. It will be constructed at a private facility, and will not be open to the general public. I will post a video of the studio once it is complete. Construction will begin in 2008. 

I'll talk to you guys later!

Hey Everybody!

With the holidays fastly approaching throughout don't forget the true meaning of Christmas. It is better to give than to receive. Your blessings will come more often than you believe. There are things in this world that mean more to me, and that's the friendships that I have developed throughout the years. One of them has been my good friend Patricia Aiken. 

Besides having a beautiful soul, and being there for people, she has shared her gift of music by singing back-up for the late Luther Vandross, and as a longstanding member of 3-Time Grammy group Sounds of Blackness. Out of the kindness of her heart, she has given me a piece of that history by passing on a piece of Luther Vandross' estate to me from an auction held in December. What is even more special is it was a gift presented by legendary group Earth Wind & Fire. 

I am extremely thankful for her, and her generosity. I hope to bless someone in the way she has blessed me and my family.

I'll talk to you guys later.

Hey Everybody!

I want to let everyone know about a special friend that's been an inspiration to me since we first met at the YMCA in Topeka, KS some years ago. Her name is Tiara Parker
and she is now an actress working on such films as "Alvin and the Chipmunks." 

You see, she always knew she wanted to be an actress, and she inspired me to do music. I remember taking her to local casting calls where she would be an extra in independent movies, and to support me, she would do vocal work on some of my demo projects. She eventually moved back east and we lost contact after nearly 10 years. 

But through the power of "Google", I found my friend again, and I am so proud to see that she is becoming everything she dreamed to be. So, I say all that to say this, people come into our lives for a reason and a season. I believe it is His way of passing on an encouraging word or giving us confirmation of what our purpose is in life. I'm glad to know that I had a part in her journey as she has had in mine.

I'll talk to you guys later.

Charmaine has been competing in Ms. El Paso modeling contest. Contestants have gone through various phases of the competition. (Some of you may have gone online over a month ago to vote for Charmaine--to ensure that she is at least in the running). Check out www.epultramodel.com and click on EPUM TV for the catwalk portion of the competition. Each model will do a catwalk for SET I and SET II. Please be warned that the lighting is poor. Enjoy!

I'll talk to you guys later.
