I was back out in Brooklyn like I never left. This time, Theorematic was on the R&B side of things hangin' with a girl from “Around the Way” by the name of Essense. She and I met up at Linden Park where we sparked up a conversation about her musical journey. Passion for music motivated a series of self taught endeavors from playing the piano, song writing, music production to sound engineering. Essense is melodically sultry with a touch of grit and one can tell by listening to her song "Hello Brooklyn" and her latest offering of “Around the Way.”SHOW LESS

THEOREMATIC: Ariel O'Neal

I just so happened to be in DC on Saturday November 7th to film a Theorematic episode with Ariel O'Neal, a really dope guitarist. That would've been a good trip within in itself, but something else happened that day. 20 mins after I arrived in the city, Joe Biden and running mate Kamala Harris were officially announced as the victors of the 2020 presidential election.  The previous solitude nature of the streets soon turned into a celebration!  I got a chance to document great images and moments and it blended perfectly with the wonderful Ariel O'Neal playing her guitar melodically in the DC streets. Amidst all of the chaos of these times, we got to steal away a moment of peace.SHOW LESS
