“Our Higher Purpose,” is an album dedicated to the growth of both my musical, and mental maturity; an opportunity to reach my maximum potential, in sharing my creativity to the world. This album comes from my perspective of a young man that grew up in Bellwood Illinois, with a heavy influence in gospel music; while highlighting the people, and experiences that help mold me into the man I am today. This album evokes of emotion from joyful, regret, peace, and sentimental. The main theme of this album is that we all have a higher purpose in life, this album is an encouragement to all to walk in your purpose.
