I go by the name of Blackspeare. I'm a very special soulful artist ( Singer, Poet, Songwriter, Human beatbox, Composer,) "In a genre of my own" as the great James Brown said. Born & raised in Birmingham, AL, I grew up studying the styles of Marvin Gaye, Al Greene, The Motown Sound Blueprint, D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, Outkast, Common & Shakespeare to master my artistry.
