“We are excited about
the lineup for this year’s Atlanta Jazz Festival,” says Camille Russell Love,
Executive Director of the City of Atlanta Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs. “As
our city becomes more international and our population younger, we are booking
the festival to welcome these new audiences.From the soulful groove of Gregory Porter, the hip-hop inspired brass of
Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, and the sensuous stylings of Brazilian songstress
Eliane Elias, we’ve got a wide variety of jazz flavors on three stages. And
admission is free! Make plans now to join us for the 39th Annual
Atlanta Jazz Festival in Piedmont Park over Memorial Day Weekend, May 27-29.”

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.
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!!!!
What can I say about Russell Gunn?Hmm.. I
was pleased to have the opportunity to speak with him on When We Speak. I was slightly familiar with his artistry because
I’ve seen him perform with Julie Dexter a few times and I was aware that he
also did an album with Dionne Farris.However, I never knew that I would grow to admire him so much….to me he’s
a legend in his own right!
And of course, when speaking to a legend, everything that
comes out of their month is full of wisdom.That’s why it took me over two months to edit his interview.Mainly because I was trying to debate what …good
stuff was I going to remove!So what I
decided was to break the interview up into sections….so stay tuned for more video snippet
from my interview with Russell Gunn.
So please check out our interview with Russell Gunn!And purchase his music!
So here's the story..... One Sunday I decided to skip church and go to the movies.
As I was sitting in my car outside the AMC Theatre, I could hear music. I rolled down my window and was like, "I like this song, I hope they say who it is".... AND THEY DID....It wasJordan Corey singing Heart of Stone....
While searching the internet, I ran across a music video called Everything You Have by Joy Ike, that caught my eye, so I decided to click on it. To my suprise, I LOVED IT and therefore, wanted to share it with you!
