2019 Breakthroughs 2020 Harvest time!

2019 Has been a year of hard labor and tremendous breakthroughs for me and my family! Happy Birthday to my twins born on New Year's Eve a year ago (the year flew by)! Here are the Highlights:

We left the hospital about 2 weeks after they were born then I got a Commercial Casting request for twins! It was a hospital commercial and they only used my son but paid my daughter as well (up for renewal in 2020)! Next my Acting career kicked up (after getting fired from my job at Walmart) and I started Acting full-time! A lot of the projects I can't say much about but I will say that I've been on sets with Trai Byers, Mykelti Williamson, Will Smith, Martin Lawrence, Eddie Murphy, Wayne Brady, Michael B. Jordan, Caleel Harris, Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, Tyler Perry, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Clint Eastwood just to name a few! I don't mind playing the background or featured extra because God has elevated me before (in Iron-Man 3 now on Disney+)! Along with a plethora of auditions (dozens that I didn't land) I starred in a few independent projects that I've posted about in previous blogs. 


My Children are Anointed and it is my responsibility to provide for them and my Wife! I thank God for her help and support when I'm away working for our family! We were blessed to have our babies put in a Hallmark Movie (Love Takes Flight) and the Casting Director secured a trailer for my Wife and our twins! You can also see me in another Hallmark Movie called A Christmas Love Story:




And here's a little business video commercial (life imitating art lol) : 

All in all this year has been full of ups and downs, barely making ends meet while working overtime without sleep! Still God kept us through it all and made a way right on time! As one door closes another opens with bigger benefits! My military experience led to a job opportunity I can't say much about but it was a blessing indeed! Now I'm looking into 2020 with great optimism and confidence that God will grant me even bigger roles and more opportunities to give Him Glory! 

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."
(Ephesians 6:12-13)
Anxiety is real and depression can weigh anyone down. That's why it is important to be anchored on the Lord! I pray in Jesus Name that no deception of the enemy takes root in our lives and all the Promises of God comes to pass!
"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."
(Philippians 4:8)

Out with the Old, In with the New!

God is doing a new thing in this new season of my life and even my old stuff is being renewed! Check out "PULL" on Amazon Prime where I play a starring role in fighting demons!



It was filmed years ago (9) but out now like it's brand new!

Last month we wrapped another horror film starring me called "By Day's End" and that should be out in 2020!


Today #Simpsons4D released this Modeling photo from a shoot we did a few months ago:

Most of all I thank God for my Beautiful Family! Having Twins has been the Biggest Highlight of my life and for my birthday last month my wife gave me the gift of a Wonderful Family Photo Shoot!

Praise God for All He has done for me! I am Blessed indeed! There's so much more on the horizon but I can't give it all away.....just stay tuned!

"But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint."
(Isaiah 40:31)

Summer Sonshine!

On the day after Juneteenth ten years ago I published a poetry book titled Deeper Than Rhymes! With that came a slew of spoken word performances and videos! Here's a Blast from the Past:




This piece of Art is for future generations to listen and learn from my mistakes! 
Soulful Words is also the title of my Spoken Word Album!

I am most proud of my son who is already following in my footsteps of commercial success! Check out this state of the art medical commercial:




This summer is sizzling on the Food Network! 
Check out this short commercial I'm in (2 shots: with my arms folded & bent over running)


God please keep lighting my wave, dripping with the blood of Jesus!

Marvel Cinematic History!

END GAME was a phenomenal Movie and a grand conclusion for over a decade of Marvel Films! No Spoilers but I am so BLESSED to be a part of Marvel Cinema and a Character from IRON-MAN 3 actually makes an appearance in this last Avenger's Movie! Grossing over $2 Billion thus far worldwide (record numbers) most people have probably heard what happens if they haven't seen it but I won't ruin the surprise!



A good friend of mine who was with me on the set of Iron-man 3 passed away this year. Randy Grazio was a fellow secret service agent on Homeland and Stand-in in Banshee to name a few of the projects we worked together. His kindness and sense of humor will be missed but I know he's still smiling!

I hope to meet his daughter someday and share with her how great of a man her father was! He helped me when I needed it and I'll never forget that.

Now that I have children of my own I am happy to have them in their first TV Movie for Hallmark called Love Takes Flight! It was a family affair and they were the only ethnic babies in the scene. I was also in the movie as background doctor. Thanks Marty Siu! (The Casting Director also casted Bolden years ago in which I played an extra and it's in theaters now!)



Iron-man 3 and Bolden put Wilmington on the map for big budget movies! I am happy to announce another project with me in it but not as an extra or small speaking part but CO STAR!!!! Stay tuned....
#PhoenixTheMovie (I wore the same costume from Bolden and the stories are similar about the black origins of music!) I play the Legendary Robert Johnson! The film is being edited now and will be coming soon....

Everything in life ties together and this is my story:

Soulful Words was written in my teens and published in my twenties in my book Deeper Than Rhymes (about ten years ago). This blog was inspired by my poetry and it has been about 10 years now I've been doing this with a passion! Pick up my audio release (Soulful Words) everywhere!

Too many people have passed away recently and their legacies have influenced me in a powerful way. John Singleton and Nipsey Hussle were masters in their crafts and world renowned for it. I loved watching Boyz in the Hood and Poetic Justice.



Inspiring young minds is what my Legacy is about and that's what I love about Nipsey Hussle and his Entrepreneurial Spirit! Check out this interview he did with Steph Curry!



The Marathon Continues!

All glory to God!

Psalm 103
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
The Lord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
13 Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him.
14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
17 But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children;
18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
19 The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
20 Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
21 Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
22 Bless the Lord, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.
