VOICES ON LOCKDOWN

Recorded inside a California State Prison

From the "A" student in each period to the crowded Detention room, young voices echo "Can you help me?" Eyes looking for direction of a genuin connection, what can you do? What will you do?

The audio CD VOICES ON LOCKDOWN recorded inside a California State prison is designed to deter at risk youth from a life of crime, violence and ultimately prison or death (this is not a scared straight project).

The focus is on the concept of sound reasoning, understanding the repercusions of choices while reinforcing positive development. As previously stated, this project was recorded inside a California state prison with LIFE TERM INMATES PARTICIPATING AS PRIMARY SPEAKERS WITH UNCOMPROMISING AUTHENTICITY.

The power of the spoken word is the primary tool used in this somewhat unconventional format but the captivating concept is designed to magnetize a gravitation of open ears and an understanding of the prison microcosm while exploring its out of sight, out of mind existence.

The 26 tracks are a variety of spoken word and movie-like soundscapes intertwined with jazz and hip hop music. PARENTAL ADVISORY - this album does contain explicit content. Although the subject content is graphic, the language appropriately maintains the authentic integrity of the message. Youth and adults alike will benefit from this project.
