Where the heart is...

I miss New York, the New York that is she.
Where Lady Liberty lies and boasts her strength and beauty. The city has always been good to me. She surrounds my spirit and makes me feel like life exists. She does not judge me, nor does she tear my soul into pieces with lies and misconceptions of beauty. I am the happiest when I am there in the core of her existence, listening to the noise of her heartbeat. She isn't blinded by her own lights & egos as Hollywood is blinded by its. Her humility is her grace.
New York offers guidance, clarity amongst the chaos wrapping it's energy around me embracing my uniqueness and eccentricity. Her hustle and her ambition provides encouragement; spreading through the city like a wind gusting through the towers as it cleans up what was left behind by the admirerers and thieves.
My heart is comforted and my emotions are safe like family secrets amongst the NY streets.
She gives me everything that I thought was lost -- the true essence of me.
The passion, the love, the energy, reminding me to love life.
To live. Breathe. And keep fighting to be what she had instill in me.

Not everyone loves New York, and New York doesn't love just anybody. It takes a nurturing and profound person who amplifies her free and expressive nature from her indecisiveness to the stubborn arrogance, to the gentle emotions and passion for life to really understand what is New York.
To love New York is to let her be, to share with the rest of the world all her glories.
New York is she.
You cannot tame a city that is so vibrant and so weightless.
I love New York.
But New York does not belong to me.
New York is she.
And forever
She is me.

"The Kru" is made up of "The Krutons"

As many of you know, our team is called "The Kru", but in order to incorporate all of our wonderful kyters and twitterkins into the mix I have officially decided to call you "The Krutons" (All matter, everything we see around us, is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons--and now we got KRUTONS!)

So after I had finally decided to let my twitterkins (The Krutons) read my blog about Kerry (bka "Krucial"), I realized that many of you share my sentiments about K. But then again, how could you not admire his unforgettable personality, charm and genuine connection. Kerry has a presence to him that makes you feel like he's been that friend you've had for over 20 year--that feeling of familiarity and it's because he is one of few who let's you see HIM and not a mirage or a halogram of who he is. I encourage all of you to comment and share your love, questions and thoughts about Krucial, as I share with you my journey; my love for music, my dedication to the people I love, and my gratitude to the people who support us and keeps us inspired: THE KRUTONS!!!!

Thank you to everyone who continues to follow us on twitter, join us on kyte, ustream, facebook, myspace and websites. We appreciate your love, support and especially your positive words of encouragement. I would like for all of you to know that every single one of your love is felt and that our inspiration is to keep bringing you GREAT music and content to keep making you proud. We do it for the love of music, but also for those who share our sentiments.

Music is what feelings sound like.

It's Definitely Krucial (Kerry "Krucial" Brothers,Jr)!

The Multi - Grammy Award Winning Producer KERRY "KRUCIAL" BROTHERS, JR

It's such an amazing experience to see a TRUE talented producer at work. I'm not bias at all considering I loved Kerry's work with Alicia Keys, Keyshia Cole, Christina Aguilera & others, before I ever had the pleasure to know him. His love of music and his passion to create music with solid content shows in his dedication to the studio; working over 15 hours on average to create masterpieces after masterpieces. The people he works with have the most love for him and is completely commited to giving him their best; that's rare to come by. Everyone comes into the studio without their egos, without their winnings, without an entourage, without security, without all that is "Hollywood", but with their talents in their pockets and with love in their hearts. It's a working formula for success. Rev. Run once said "Teamwork makes a dream work. Always remember your network determines your net worth." and it's so evident in what is so "Krucial". Kerry is so Krucial (pun intended) to keeping music alive -- a name that fits such an extraordinary talent. Not many people can say that their music will be classic and iconic, but with everything that Krucial puts his magic touch to, it instantly can become a classic. There aren't enough words to describe the feeling I get listening to his treasures, but with every single one of them, I can't help but feel so proud -- so proud to be apart of the process; the journey, but it's mostly BEING PROUD OF HIM! Amazing producer, but also an amazing person! It's So Krucial!!! go to http://www.itssokrucial.com/ (COMING SOON!)I suggest everyone to go to http://www.kyte.tv/itssokrucial to watch him live as he invites his fans, friends, and the world to experience his process and to also share with you some of the music that inspires him.
