I want to break free from fear, I want to break free from limitation. I wanna break free from judgment . I wanna break for you from the evils of the world. I wanna break free from gravity. I wanna break free from the laws and the rules that keep us small.
I NEED MY FREEDOM by myself @thisisvo and @mikemac
Excited to share that āHit Em With A Bangā by @lgteamgenius and @mikemac is now featured in an Apple TV+ MLB promo š„
The Parasol team has been obsessed with this track since Mike first sent it over several months ago. LGās powerful raps and Mikeās signature hard-hitting production come together to create a truly standout record.
Huge shoutout to Andy Hamm for the opportunity!

āPBSā from Whatās a Genre Anyway vol. 1 by @cliftun out now!
Proud of my brother and to be a part of this project. So much more on the way. Love working with Cliftun!
I want to say something that shouldnāt be controversial, but somehow still is.
Disabled artists exist. Disabled songwriters exist. Disabled producers exist.
āØAnd yet there has never been a major songwriting camp built for the disabled community.
We are not āinclusiveā as an afterthought and not āaccessibleā on a checklist.āØWe want change.
Iāve spent my life in music. There have been so many sessions that werenāt built for my body, my health, or my reality. And I know Iām not alone.
There are so many talented disabled creators who never even get the chance to be seen not because the talent isnāt there, but because the system isnāt.
So this is me asking publicly for help.
I want to build the first real songwriting camp for the disabled community. A place where access isnāt an accommodation itās the foundation.
Iām calling on music publishers, labels, execs, artists, and allies:āØIf you talk about diversity, if you talk about equity, if you talk about changing the culture this is a chance to actually do it.
Not with words. With action.
If youāre disabled and creating, I see you.
āØIf youāre in a position to help, Iām asking you to step up.
Letās stop pretending this space doesnāt exist ā and start building one that does.

23 years ago I was paralyzed from my chest down from a six inch blood clot that was pressing on my spinal cord from c7 to t3.
After emergency surgery, 4 days in ICU and losing 16 pounds, I was told Iād never walk again at the age of 15ā¦
And this is when I found my super power.
I found that if I want something, I have the power to make that happen despite the odds. I have the physical, mental and spiritual ability to do anything I put my mind and body to.
I AM A FUCKING BEAST!
NOBODY CAN STOP ME BUT ME!
For 23 years, I never quit.
For 23 years, I never made excuses.
For 23 years, I kept my promises to others and to myself.
For 23 years, I worked my ass for every single thing I have.
For 23 years, I believed in myself.
For 23 years Iāve been grateful for every step Iāve ever made.
For 23 years Iāve remained undefeated.
For 23 years I proved to myself that I AM A FUCKING BEAST! NOBODY CAN STOP ME BUT ME!
Everyday, everybody can see the physical part of my injury and my type 1 diabetes, but they donāt realize that we all share the same inner struggle, and thatās the toughest battle, the silent one nobody sees.
In life we have two wolves, the good wolf and the bad wolf. It is up to you to choose which one you feed.
You control your destiny. You control your happiness. You control your life. Donāt make excuses. Go live! Be the victor not the victim.
If I can do it. You can do it. Whoās stopping you?!?
CANT STOP ME. CANT STOP US!
