Writing & Music is my therapy. On social media I appear to be such an extrovert, but I really love time to myself away from people. That may sound weird, because I create shows for people to enjoy. I love for people to heal and experience moments through my words/experiences that could help them. The same way music helps me. There’s moments like today that’s really hard.

Even though I write, direct and produce the shows and I’m not the person on stage. What’s being presented is a reflection of me. This means I have to put on a happy face at all times when inside I maybe feeling broken. I go through so much unnecessary bullshit everyday. Discrimination, people having preconceived thoughts of who I am, but I gotta keep it pushing. I keep pushing because my mission on this earth is bigger than me. I think about the black gay outspoken boy after me. The obstacles he may face and how he should keep pushing. How important it is for him or her to stay true to who they are and not what others want them to be. I sit in my apartment tonight prepping mentally for rehearsal tomorrow. I like to listen to music. Most times I just play songs that speaks to how I’m feeling. There’s very few people that I can call and they understand how it is to wear many hats in a day. It’s a lot. Mentally, financially and physically.

I thank those that believe in me. I say to myself if Tyler Perry listened to everyone he wouldn’t be a billionaire. I had dinner a few years ago with Award Winning Director George C. Wolfe and he told me “ you keep doing what you’re doing! It’s working and the people will continue to come as they are now, because you have a following.” So, I’m going to keep going.. and I pray that you do too! Love you!

Keep going!

Don’t stop grinding. During these times a lot of people might not support you, but you must not look for validation from humans. I don’t care if it’s your momma, daddy, family, friends or whoever. This is your life. We are only on this earth for a limited of time.

Keep your faith in GOD. Most people doesn’t have the strength and courage to follow their dreams. One day your hard work, sacrifices and tears that no one sees will be worth it. I’m not only talking to you.. I’m speaking to myself too. We’re in this together. Never Give Up!

What’s your name? I am a Producer. I am a Director. I am an author. I am a go getter! I am a friend, but if you strip all of that most importantly I AM KENDRELL. We’re living in times where people can get so caught up in titles and forget the true essence of who they are. We’re raised to always work on our careers, but the most rewarding work I’ve ever done was on myself.

Let me stop preaching! Happy Friday!

It’s Kendrell! I’m so excited. Today is the launch of my new website! Yaay!! Today tickets go on sale for A SOULFUL CHRISTMAS! How exciting! As I’m typing this I’m also a little annoyed, because I’m stuck on the train heading to work! New York City Life.. you can leave on time then there’s always a train problem. If you guys didn’t know.. yes I currently work a full time job at Christian Dior while creating, producing and directing my shows! So many sacrifices that I had to make to get to this point. I’m the type of person that won’t share if something is bothering me. I’ll just sit in my house and listen to music. It’s a lot of work, but I continue to put my trust in GOD and allow him to lead my journey. I decided to write a public journal, because I love to inspire people. If it’s not through my creative art, maybe my day to day will. Get to know me! The real me ❤️.
