Album Notes

Charismatic Birthday: February 26, 1981 Height: 6’0 Weight: 190pds Birthplace/Location: Washington, DC Charisma is defined as a personal attractiveness that enables you to influence others. Words could only attempt to describe Charismatic as a cool, calm, and collective individual. Fueled by a strong determination to have a powerful voice in hip-hop, this rather unique artist has a great focus and clear understanding of what he wants to do in the music industry. Currently, Charismatic is a member of ASCAP, MadFlavor/SixCess Network, KZ's House of Talent, WAMA (Washington Area Music Association), SAW (Songwriters Association of Washington, DC), and the Recording Academies Washington DC Chapter. “I didn’t choose hip-hop, hip-hop chose me to stand in the gap on the thin line between love and hate. I want to musically do more than tickle your ears, visually do more than flirt with your eyesight, and physically do more than pleasure your flesh.” Music is first meant to entertain the audience who listens, and then it is meant to influence them to act upon what they have just heard. Any song that I write or perform does all of these things and more. To be more specific, Charismatic first entertains you only with the intentions to catch you like a fisherman of men/women. Then, once you have been baited and hooked by the sultry sounds of the musical production, the fishing rod is then reeled in. And whoever is caught gets sautéed, grilled, broiled, and filleted to fit right into the ever growing number of fans, who will sell out records stores and blow up radio stations with song request world wide! Therefore, the message conveyed, in any of the songs that I bless listeners with the opportunity of experiencing, will be like a seed planted in the spirits, minds, and bodies of the human species interested in what I have to say through a microphone. Through this cultural expression of music, Charismatic personally reflects on life lived in the past, present, and future. And since I live with no regrets, the effect that my music will have on the hip-hop community is positive. So I have a good head between my shoulders, which I use to think with unlike most who use what is between they legs. I plan to use this God given gift to be a blessing to all who exist in my circle of influence; all while I still attract not chase the money, fame and record sells.
