Who We Are
“We are the 99 percent. We are getting kicked out of our homes. We are forced to choose between groceries and rent. We are denied quality medical care. We are suffering from environmental pollution. We are working long hours for little pay and no rights, if we’re working at all. We are getting nothing while the other 1 percent is getting everything. We are the 99 percent.”

“My ‘American Dream’ was hijacked by a system designed to disproportionately benefit those on top of the economic food chain. As a Dean’s List student with the top award for my major, I graduated from college this summer to virtually zero opportunities. The 99% aren’t lazy freeloaders but rather hard working Americans simply looking to fulfill their potential. I fully support the movement because our struggles are shared. I am the 99%.”

Fela Soul
What do you get when you put together afrobeat legend Fela Kuti and rap pioneers De La Soul? You get Fela Soul; musical tapestry created by Gummy Soul artist Amerigo Gazaway. More than just a clever title, Fela Soul is an 8-track, 33 minute journey into the world of afrobeat rhythms, funky horn riffs, and classic hip-hop gems. Using dozens of hand-picked samples from the Nigerian instrumentalist and political figure Fela Kuti, and 8 carefully-chosen acapellas from the Native Tongue rap trio De La Soul, Amerigo seamlessly intertwines the two into something completely new and original.

“I came up with the concept for this project in fall of 2010. I wanted to follow through with it not only because it was a good idea, but because of the powerful impact both these artists have had on me and my music. Afrobeat, jazz, funk, and hip-hop are already so interconnected, and I always thought it would be exciting to work on a project that combined all of these elements together.”
“I hope this project will help to bridge the gap between hip-hop and afrobeat, and serve an introduction for hip-hop fans and music fans alike who are unfamiliar with Fela Kuti or De La Soul’s music.”

The Great Flood
It’s been one whole year since the Great Flood that hit Nashville and Middle Tennessee. Many lives were lost and thousands of people were forced to evacuate their homes. In commemoration of this catastrophe, my friend and I have made a song/music video as a reminder of those who risked their lives and volunteered to help. Gummy Soul Presents: “The Great Flood”
