The record where it all started.
A bold introduction to a sound that’s grounded in jazz and stretched by everything else that moves.
It fuses rhythm and melody in motion. You'll hear West African groove, hip hop pulse, gospel spirit, classical architecture, and L.A. fire — all carried by a band that listens deeply and plays with purpose.
This isn’t just a drummer’s record. It’s a statement of connection — to self, to rhythm, to the tradition, and to the now. Featuring “Deep Waters Outer Space” and “For Nipsey.”
