Soulful, Relective and Uplifting
author: Ronda (fellow Spartan)
This is a truly wonderful, uplifting and inspiring CD packed with soulful insight! It is a throw back to days of Gil Scott Heron, Nikki Giovanni and the whole Black Pride movement with a Neo Soul flavor. My favorites are "Be", "She" and "Under a Groove in Paris" - I do travel there often, Oui, Oui. Our young people should hear this CD and be encouraged. I'm buying the CD for my nephews, niece and friends! Spread the word and Keir keep the positive flow!!

Never Give Up
author: Morris
I, like many other people in the work force today, have been laid off from my job in Corporate America many times. After hearing the “Never Give Up” CD, found that the songs really touch on how I am feeling right now. The CD is inspiring, encouraging, and easy to listen to with its music and words. I have passed it along to my friends and family to listen to and enjoy the benefits of hearing something that is truly positive and motivating. Best wishes for success in his future projects.

Awesome
author: Cheryl
I just wanted to let you know that I enjoy the CD & play it often.
It provides a positive message, gives encouragement – which in this negative environment is needed. I am not someone who will sit & read poetry – but I have always enjoyed listening to it.
Keep uplifting us!
Cheryl
