15 year old musician Quinton releases debut album "My Way"

An eclectic mix of R&B, funk, hip-hop, neo soul and spoken word, My Way is a product of two years of hard work and dedication. Over 28 songs were written/arranged for this project by Quinton before being narrowed down to the best 13. It's rife with influences from a wide range of artists including Maxwell, Prince, Michael Jackson, the P-Funk Collective, Gil Scott-Heron, D'Angelo and much more. Themes of love, independence, break up, and coming of age are prevalent throughout the album. It harkens to albums like Off The Wall, Urban Hang Suite, and Brown Sugar.

Special thanks to my Uncle Sean, parents, and Andrew Zlak for making this project possible.

(From your very own smooth...wink)

My Way is available for purchase here:

Unique is good-it has a fresh sound to it. It's different and that's good. U know what it reminds me of St. Paul (the family) when he sings the beginning of Mutiny-same kind of vocals. Nice.

I just bought the mp3 download. I will listen to it later but

do your thang dude....and it just finished downloading. Nice!

If you aren't already doing so, please study music theory so

that when you lose inspiration you won't hit a brick wall musically

or creatively.

But yeah, do your thang, dude!
