Fear and Financial Struggles: The Reality Of Creating Liberation - Storytime with Sly5thAve (7/15)
Sly5thAve - Liberation is OUT NOW via Tru Thoughts: truthoughts.ffm.to/liberation
I feel a mixed bag of emotions about sharing this video.
On one hand, I feel pride. I was able to take the resources I had at the time and make something I was proud of, and I stand on that. On the flip side, I’m embarrassed to have had to struggle, and identifying more with the feeling of needing to be further along or more secure.
But hey, it is what it is.
A lot of people and bands I respect have had to make the same sacrifice and with everything going on in the world I embrace the opportunity. The power in creation becoming an “obsession” is really the biggest take away for me. This whole experience definit...

From beat tape to orchestral record… How do you like to spend your Christmas? Denitia and I always talk about this legendary Christmas when we were stuck at the ClubCasa in Brooklyn, alone the whole holiday. All of our friends had left the city and we were in this huge house with a beautiful piano downstairs. For 2 weeks we spent the entire day, every day writing and playing music. We’d start a...

Sometimes all you need is a change of scenery. My teachers and mentors always told me to take advantage of the time I had when I was younger to explore and find my sound. As you get older, life and responsibilities get in the way and you can’t always commit to studying 5-8 hours a day when you have to hustle to pay rent. Leaving where I was comfortable - New York - quickly followed by a global ...

Necessity is the mother of invention, but I’d go as far to say necessity - or desperation - breeds creativity… If we want to be cute about it. Being put in difficult situations makes you look for solutions that you didn’t see before. Sometimes, these are the solutions that were right in front of you all along but that didn’t feel possible for whatever reason; maybe your own restraints, or the r...

Thank you for sharing this, for whatever reasons, I still struggle to be totally comfortable putting out music that isn’t somewhat influence by what I think people want to hear. I found this inspiring thank you.

Love the Mashup incorporation of Berry White's "Strange Games And Things!" Very clever. 👍🏾

A song to come home to after a stressful day at work. Soothes the soul. Reminds me of a fantastic band back in the day, Weather Report. Never gets old hearing talented musicians gel together like this
Love your music. Just wondering if your black tenor you play is a Keilwerth?
