Talib Kweli is one of my favorite MC's. I've been listening to him since the Black Star days. I'm honored to be apart of this project! Looking forward to making more music with him in the future. Blacksmith is the movement!

Maurice vs Mobetta

As you can see there's a lot going on with me this year. My birthday is Jan 6th. I'm really excited to be turning 30! Feels like it was just yesterday when I was 16 years old sneaking into the Jazz Clubs of Chicago. Time sure does fly. I've been busy playing, producing and composing new music. My next project will be Maurice v s Mobetta. The LP will feature tracks from some of the best producers on the planet such as DJ Scratch, Devo Springsteen, DJ Center, Joe Blaxx, The Royal Family, Chris Rob & Pimps of Joytime, and Sam Barsh. I will be playing trumpet and rapping on it. I'm so hyped and can't wait to share this new music with you. Wishing everyone a safe, happy, healthy & prosperous New Year!!

Much Love,

Maurice

Happy New Year!

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to personally thank everyone for all the love and continued support. I feel like the people's champ right now! Because of your support, my career has taken off to new heights. This year The Effect has travel all over the globe promoting the new album. We performed shows in India, Indonesia, London, Croatia, Spain, Italy, and all over the country. This has been an incredible year for me with the highest of highs and lowest of lows. I've made some major changes in my life and learned a lot about myself in the process. When I cut my locks off, it was a very spiritual moment for me. I feel so much more in tune with everything. I promise to work even harder next year and raise the bar. This is only the beginning. Thank you all for believing in me. Wishing everyone a safe, Happy Holiday season and a healthy & prosperous New Year!!

Much Love,

Maurice
