#ImASpeaker: I SPOKE IT AND IT HAPPENED!

When God gave me the vision of When We Speak, I didn't fully understand the concept that "Death and LIFE are in the power of the tongue".... but boy has he been teaching it to me.  Each interview on When We Speak has been a blessing to my life, because it has allowed me to meet and build relationships with many great people.  It has also been a blessing because when I don't have any idea of who to interview, I always ask God to send me the next one!  And He has!!! And although all my interviews have been very essential, there is one in particular that I would like to share with you....It's the interview with Terrell Carter.


Terrell Carter is an actor, model, singer, songwriter,....(the list goes on and on).  He is most popular from Tyler Perry movies and plays, such as Meet The Browns, Madea's Class Reunion, Diary of A Mad Black Woman, and others.  He also has a role in the new film Think Like A Man 2!!! (Can't Wait)....




BACK TO WHY THIS INTERVIEW IS ESSENTIAL....

This interview is essential because it embodied the very principle that When We Speak is built on.
 
Here's the story: (#TRUESTORY)
One day I was on the phone talking to a music producer friend of mine and I was telling him that Terrell Carter was a really good singer and I would love to meet him one day.  Then, a couple of days later I was talking to my camera man about guests for the show and I told him that I really wish I could interview Terrell Carter but I don't know anyone that knows him or that I could reach out to.  A few days later...I talked to the producer friend again, and he tells me, "I meet someone that knows you".  And of course I was like "Really?" and was shocked because I wasn't sure who it could be.  Then, he finally told me who it was and I was like "oh ok...yeah! I know her".  Little did I know that she was going to be my connection to Terrell Carter.  So then, the producer tells me.... "She and I are in the studio with an artist and your name came up...."


SIDE NOTE:
Did you just catch what he said?  "She and I are in the studio with an artist and your name came up!" When I heard that, I was overwhelmed!! Just to think that my name is starting to buzz around Atlanta!!! but anyway....

BACK TO THE STORY......
He also told me that she had also wanted him to do some studio time with another artist that she works with...... and guess who that artist was...yep!!! Terrell Carter!!! 
So of course, I didn't say anything about wanting him on the show again or anything about "hook a brother up!".  I just went on with business as usual and one day I was on the phone with the lady that my producer friend and I have in common, when she says, "Did you get my email?" and I was like, "What email?" and she says, "I was wanting to know if you would like to interview Terrell Carter on your show."  Of course, with no hesitation, I was said YES!  So immediately, she called Terrell on the phone, I introduced myself, told him about the mission of When We Speak, and it was history from there!!!

Even while I'm typing this, I can feel shivers going through my body!  Just to think that I spoke that!!! You can actually speak things into existence!!! WOW!  God heard me!  So without further delay, please check out my interview with Terrell Carter!  Be Blessed and Keep On Speaking!!!!

Speaking With Tortured Soul

Words can not begin to tell you how I felt when Tortured Soul agreed to speak with me on When We Speak...I was excited and nervous, all at the same time.  The night prior to our interview I could not sleep at all because the anxiety was just too much! 
But I made it through and Tortured Soul was so welcoming.  If you are not familiar with Tortured Soul, here's a little information:

Members (LtoR):  Jordan Scannella                                  
                            Ethan White
                            John Christian Urich

(From www.torturedsoulmusic.com)- Tortured Soul’s origins date back to 2001 while Urich was steering Cooly’s Hot Box, an acid jazz outfit also featuring under-the-radar indie soul vocalist Angela Johnson. After putting Cooly’s Hot Box on hiatus, Urich composed “Might Do Something Wrong,” which was quickly picked up by New York-based deep house label Central Park Recordings, and Tortured Soul was born. Thanks to the cool laidback mix provided by Osunlade, the song quickly became an underground staple at the iconic Club Shelter and helped jumpstart the development of a full-length disc generating more soulful house. With the 12-inch single in heavy rotation in the New York club circuit, Urich went into overtime to restructure the band’s line-up: The session players on “Might Do Something Wrong” were out; bassist Jason “JKriv” Kriveloff and slick, jazz-honed keyboardist Ethan White – formally Urich‘s bandmates in the rhythm section of NYC acid-jazz band Topaz – were in. Together, the new trio forged a new cool sound by blending the freewheeling New York house and classic disco beats with elements of hip-hop, salsa and Roy Ayers-styled jazz-fusion (Read more at www.torturedsoulmusic.com)

Back Up Does Not Mean Cover Up!

Sometimes I wonder why you don't see many groups anymore.....I'm not saying that they don't exist because they do! I just wonder why there aren't as many...For example name some groups of the 90s.........(I bet you were able to name at least three!)   

Now, name a group of today!

(Want me to give you more time?)

It seems that everyone is only out for themselves now! I'm not saying that you shouldn't look out for yourself but I think that everyone always wants to be out front (ALONE!)

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that! But what I learned happened with this is: we stopped appreciating the value and harmonies that more than one vocalist can bring! I've seen and meet alot of great solo vocalists but can you name one that can sing harmonies simultaneously? ME NEITHER!!!! So although some people have great voices, their voice is at it's essence's peak when accompanied with other vocals.....That doesn't discredit them in any way!

I said that to say that I believe that's how we got to not understanding and appreciating the value of the background singer. Well I wouldn't say this is true for most "singers" and "artist" because I would hope that they understand the dimensions that great backup vocals can bring to a song or performance. I think is more so, non musical people that I'm referring to....I've heard so many people say stuff like..."She just sings background" or "The should put him in the background cause he can't sing"............ WHEN DID "BACKGROUND" START BEING "WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU NOT THAT GOOD OF A SINGER"?


.......With this in mind, I keep trying to think of how I could do my part to change that perception, so I started thinking about a few people that I've seen singing backup vocals on the regular that I know can "SANG!"....... Then I thought of one person I could talk to......... Crissy Collins!

I had no idea how I would get Crissy Collins to join me on When We Speak. I had never met her, I had only been to her shows and we had been in a few of the same places at the same time. So I just added her name in my prayer journal and went on.

Why did I want to speak with Crissy so badly? Well, she has been singing backup for a long time with artists like Kelly Price and Beyonce. Not only that she sang with B. Chase Williams and Shabach for many years too! Who better to speak with?

TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT....... God opened the door for me to finally meet Crissy one on one, and she accepted the interview!
NOW YOU TELL ME IF YOU STILL THINK THE BACKGROUND IS FOR PEOPLE THAT CAN'T SING!
