NEW CD AVAILABLE - GET IT TODAY!!!






















I'm so excited because the day has finally arrived. My new CD hits the internet market today. It's been a long time coming(WHEW!!!). During my hiatus I have learned so much about myself and others. This journey has not been an easy one - but it has definitely been an interesting one.
I cannot wait to hear the feedback from the New CD. Your emails inspire me and keep me doing what I do. I'm praying and trusting God for big things in 2006 and this New CD is just the beginning. I am gearing-up to hit the road and make this CD, the hit that I know it can be.

THE "PEOPLE'S POET" IS BACK! The latest CD from Spoken Word Artist b.r.burns contains some of the most requested poems from the radio show. After receiving hundreds of email requests from fans of the show about the poems, b.r.burns decided to go to the studio and record this entertaining and uplifting CD.The CD features outstanding guest appearances by: Poet/Producer/Singer – Taji Hailey, Poet – Marie Brown, Gospel Newcomer - Deshun Neal, Toisli Martin, his nephew Dominique Jones, of course his Mama is back and a very special surprise guest. From the ode to “bbw” (Big Beautiful Women) to the inspiring “whatever it takes”, you will listen to this CD over and over again and definitely tell all of your friends about it.

ORDER YOUR COPY AND A COUPLE OF COPIES FOR SOME FRIENDS!!!

R.I.P. - Mr. Lou Rawls

Lou Rawls, the velvet-voiced singer who started as a church choir boy and went on to sell more than 40 million albums, died Friday, January 6, 2006. He won three Grammy Awards in a career that spanned nearly five decades and a range of genres. He was 72.

As a proud graduate of Texas College(Tyler, TX) - a historically Black College, I was recently saddened by the passing of Mr. Lou Rawls. His tireless efforts to keep the spotlight on and raise money for HBCU's will always be a shining star in his lasting legacy.

Thank You God for lending us Mr. Lou Rawls.

IT MATTERS!

I'm going to work on this blog thang - until I get it down! lol

In this year of "following your dreams", yesterday's radio show was on point. Most of the callers were in relationships/marriages were their spouses were extremely supportive of their visions. But there were several callers who expressed dismay with their significant others, because of their lack of support for their pursuits.

As a person that is "actively" following his dream - I can "testify" that having people in your corner that support and encourage your endeavors - IT' MATTERS! So I will share with you something that I heard Susan Taylor(Essence Magazine) say at a conference once: "Either you're on my way 0r you're in my way!" So I say to you - tell all those nonbelievers to "GET OUT OF YOUR WAY!"

Until my keyboard clicks on again - Peace!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!



OUT WITH THE OLD
AND
IN WITH THE NEW

I know it wasn’t easy
But you made it through another year
And just remember
There is a purpose for you still being here

So out with the old
And in with the new
This will be your year
Great things are in store for you

Maybe a new love is on the way
So you better brace yourself
And you can handle it this time
Because you now know that first you gotta love yourself

Forget all that mess that you went through in 2005
It only made you stronger
Cause only the strong can survive

Your financial situation is about to do a turn around
Go get that new job you want
Don’t take no for an answer
You stand your ground

All those goals and dreams that you have
Well you got 365 new days to do it
And you can prove all those haters wrong
And make all those that doubted you say – “I just knew it!”

Because the ball has dropped
And the clocks have ticked
It’s time to walk into your new destiny
Happy New Year Everybody – MAKE IT HAPPEN in 2006!
