Without further ado, here is my very first official music video… “Stop!”
It’s a stop motion video, comprised of just under 20,000 images.
All shot, Directed, and edited by Jelani Memory / Produced By Mec Jagger for Rxlngr, Inc.:

Last bet. Final round. All spent.
I’m struggling.
‘Cause I’ve been trying to win my prize.
All I have have will not fit in this grave when I’m dead.
Oh no! I’m doing it over and over.
Wondering if I will ever stop.
Desperate. Final hour. Last sprint.
I’m stumbling.
‘Cause I’ve been trying to top my time.
All I have and I ever gave is all there.
Oh no! I’m doing it over and over.
Wondering if I will ever stop.
Not alone. But being lonely is all I’ve known.
Gotta grow in the shadow.
So it’s been stop and go, but I’m oh so close.
And I ask is that it comes to pass at long last.
Oh no! I’m doing it over and over.
Wondering if I will ever stop.
Oh no. Oh no. Oh no.
Wondering if I will ever stop.
YAY!!!
Hey lovies! I’m so happy to write this post!
Hopefully most of you have downloaded my FREE Double EP by now and are excited to hear that I’m planning to release a Deluxe Edition of it!!!
That’s right! I’m adding BRAND NEW SONGS, wrapping it up in some super premium packaging and releasing it as both a Double CD AND 12″ Vinyl.
As you know, I don’t have a label to fund this, so to help make it possible I’ve launched this kickstarter project where I’m basically give away EVERYTHING I’ve ever recorded! Along with everything I ever used to record it! Crazy, I know!!
I’m sooooo friggin excited to see this come together!! I just hope that you guys are all with me on this one and show your support.
Go here to pledge your contribution today. No payments will be charged until Jan, 2nd 2012!!
Let’s make it happen!
Check out brand new bonus cover art for the ‘Gone’ double EP and it’s official tracklisting here.
1. My name is pronounced Mu•see•na.

4. I started playing piano at age 11. (…as in 17 years ago. Gah!)
5. In 2005 I received my certification for Pro Tools engineering.
6. I can sight read sheet music, write music notation and arrange for big band and/or orchestras.
7. On stage, I almost exclusively play a voyager or little phatty synthesizer as I am endorsed by moog music.
8. As a member of Common’s band I’ve performed fon two separate occasions. Once at the hometown inaugural ball and later at the 2010 democratic rally in Hyde Park, Chicago.
9. In 2010 I was nominated for a “Best Vocal Performance” Grammy® in the Urban Alternative Category, for my work with The Foreign Exchange.
10. I generally write, arrange, produce, compose, record and even mix all my own music.
**. BONUS FACT: For my 28th birthday I released the‘Gone’ double EP,

The ‘Gone’ 2xEP is essentially 2 EPs in one – (Urban & Suburban) where I take 3 songs ideas and interpret them based on my early experiences in D.C. and Virginia. Hope you enjoy!

Hello Lovies,
If you’ve been with me over the course of at least the last 2 years, you know what a challenge it has been to get to this point. And so it is extremely exciting to announce that I will be releasing new music tonight, at midnight.
