It\u2019s about time spent in my beloved Fort Worth and the experiences that made me the man I am today. It\u2019s soulful music in the truest sense \u2013 it\u2019s imbued with my soul.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m excited to share these stories about my home, about nostalgia, about my upbringing, about where I\u2019m from, with all of you.
