I used to talk to this 15 y/o kid on MSN & we compared notes on cameras in my early Despacam days.
That kid went on to become a giant by the name of Jamal Edwards. He left the door open & 1000s of us ran through it.
Thank you so much Jamal 🕊❤️.

Help! This is a picture of my brothers Adrian & Wayne. I’m looking for my brother Wayne Henry (right), from Birmingham, UK, who I havent seen since he disappeared in 2004.
I’d like to find my brother, or at least find out what happened to him.

It felt mad getting an office a couple weeks before the killer virus hit & everyone decided to work from home Lol.
Felt like a waste, but its been a blessing to have a space to keep my head clear & the vision going.

This is my first studio in 2001.
I saved up my money and rented a room above a DJ equipment shop.
The place was falling apart, late night I’d see mice jumping up the stairs. We made it work though.
I used to make beats then & engineer sessions for local artists.

Told my daughter I’d pay her £5 for every 100 pages she reads of my business books. She needs to do a presentation of her understanding at every checkpoint. The money she’s earned whilst learning is to be invested in her first business.

Respectfully brother this is something you will need to do your research on. There is a long history (especially within American media) of black women being likened to men. Type “masculinity black women” into Google and start from there.

For further context, I had 3 brothers, two of them passed, my brother Adrian in the photo tragically passed in 2001, so it’s just me & Wayne left. Not having a relationship & us reconnecting now has so many layers to it, I can’t explain the joy.
