Yes! My child-black punks do exist! I should know I was one. There are a few more around now than when I was young. Most rock afros or dreadlocks, occasionally I’ll run across a few with Mohawks, not many though. I may not be father to these new kids inspired by… Continue

my status update is broken so I guess I will update it here. Sorry, I've been gone for a while. Chaos decided to open up its asshole and let it rip all over m'life, but life is starting to stabilize again so I am back. Also, I joined the masses and now have a facebook. If any of you all would like to add me to your facebook pm me and i'll give you my info.
I find it funny how some of the white interviewees are referencing how they are struggling in south africa and I'm like have you been to any of the shanty towns in the region thats struggling. But there are a few others who I can appreciate there sentiments. This should be a good film to see when it comes out for both white and Black audiences.
So we went 'poof'. Our last official appearance (minus a Bushwick loft party or two) was at last summer's Afropunk Festival. After dismantling the band and hitting our self-destruct buttons just for kicks....we've pulled things back together. A week of no work, all play in San Fran helped remind us why we started doing this...
So here's the update....Mr. Steeples is officially now only on the business and film side of our little underground multimedia monster. That… Continue

As much as I like my alone time I have been craving the outside world. I hate that I am not living my life to the fullest. Most of my close friends are scattered about doing their own thing and I am here by myself. I am young and I should be out and about. I just want to be around others from time to time.
