Hey, Vernon. Sorry to have missed the set with Nona and you in NYC recently-I think 24-7 Spyz was also featured. I also play guitar and would love to know when you're jamming again in town. Let a sistah know, alright? Keep shredding.
Happy Birthday, Vernon! Why am I the only one postin on your AfroPunk page? What's up with that?! See you in San Francisco next month! That show is going to be so bad ass!
Yes! You did come thru. I hope we gave you enough love since you were a bit heated. I DO understand. Thank you for talking with my sun. We'll get him another sax teacher when we return to CA. Actually, after being at his first AP Fest, now he wants to play the drums. Damn! Peace and blessings, Brotha Vernon.
Yo, Vernon! Sup, family? Peace and blessings to you. Sure would love to see you make an appearance at the AfroPunk fest this weekend. Just show up so we can give you some love.

Hi! My name is Jay B. Walker A.K.A. Zyyro. I am an artist, activist and director in film and tv who left the security of working in TV in NYC to keep my sister's ATL based non-profit alive. .A passion for change fuels my life. It fueled my sister's life too. She was a Doctor, Classical Singer and a Filmaker Educated at Howard University. A true Renaissance woman.
From Medicine to Music to Movies.....she did it all and started a non-profit in ATL to create excitement about learning through teaching film production.She supported it out of her pocket from 1997 til passing away in April 2008. I am attemptinng to keep her dream alive and continue making "CHANGE" a reality. I need your help though.
The logo and pics you see are of the 1st edition of my "CHANGE SHIRT" COLLECTION. A black vintage t-shirt that celebrates this new day and time. We've made a drastic change in Washington...we can make a drastic change in the world! I am attempting to do my part.
I am selling the "CHANGE SHIRT" at www.jetfuelforrevolution.com. The first one is limited to only 2000 pieces and will be a collectors item.
THE CHANGE SHIRT MAKES CHANGES!!! The next limited editions will be offered in other colors. I would appreciate your support by buying one for you and friends as gifts...or just spreading the word.
