When it comes to BjustB-ing, genre is meaningless. Where does BjustB fit in; wherever BjustB goes, as water flows, along paths of B's own, reflecting upon those who've inspired along the way.

From a multipliciously delicious world of musical influences: Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Prince, Sly Stone, George Clinton, Quincy Jones, Dionne Warrick, Duke Ellington, Stevie Wonder, Burt Bacharach, Sylvester, Elton John, Lou Rawles, Peobo Bryson, Natalie Cole, Barry Manilow, Patti LaBelle, Minnie Ripperton, Phyllis Hyman, Jennifer Holliday, Billy Joel, Al Jerrau, Herbie Mann, Henry Mancini, Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band, and many more, comes BjustB, in the rough, in a Rainbow-illuminated Musicalovely Universe of his own. Just keeping it real - telling it like it is. Doing what B's doing for the love of it.

Mayhaps something along the way will catch an ear--tickle someone's fancy--provoke another to think--bring back a memory--strike a nerve--make ya laugh--maybe even leave ya with ya mouth hanging open going what the F***?????

That what BjustB-ing is all about. To each his/her own. Love ain't never hurt anyone. If it ain't no love in it, better leave that thang alone. Be just and just Be.
