How you be family? Yes indeed, what a great time we had interviewing Tee Rainer.  Tee has toured with a "who's who" in r&b/soul music (Silk, Calvin Richardson, Avant, to name a few), yet you can tell he's as real and down to earth.  The greatest thing of it all, he's genuinely humble about all that he's accomplished thus far.  Tee Rainer has no hang-ups, or put-ons about who he is.  Those qual...

What's going on family? I see you standing tall. There's no telling what's going on in the madness of the world, yet don't let it stop your stride. In hearing the goodness from my godchildren, and that they've shared the goodness of The Throwback Lounge with their classmates (mind you, they're 10 and 15, respectively), it put yours truly at a loss for words. We truly cannot put a price on that. No...

It's a blessing to have...

Hey family, how you be? I see you standing tall in the midst of it all. One of the most beautiful things is when the youngsters are profoundly in-tuned to what the elders have done, and continue to do..... musically, that is.  My godchildren (Maestro's children) came to me with a requested a cut I hadn't played in a long while, and they found out about it by listening to a hip hop song. What is th...

His latest single, "Don't Throw Our Love Away", is doing wonderful, and has a wonderful back story. We...
