Please enjoy "Rebels On Wax" Vol.1 and Vol. 2.

Rebels On Wax is a collection of political and social commentary targeted to black men. The message is plain, clear, rebellious in nature, and revolutionary.

The theme for Rebels On Wax Volume 1 is: To Dream. It centers around a rarely heard speech by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. that came from my family's personal vinyl record collection. Behind each speech I've produced beats to match the rhythmic pacing of politicians, writers, and icons from their era. The audio is then placed with out-of-context visuals that somehow reinforce the timelessness of each visionary's words.

The theme for Rebels On Wax Volume 2 is: To Achieve. It showcases the perspectives of some of our most successful male contemporary black voices. This volume serves as both a testimony to the progress achieved during the 50 years following the Civil Rights Era, and a charge to the next generation of future leaders to reclaim their power to build something greater.
