Highlights from the 2009 OUTMusic Awards aired on LOGO’s NewNowNext Poplab.  Below is a video clip of my favorite OMA moments and my feelings about being the first black male to win an OMA.  You can catch all the highlights at www.logoonline.com.

Tom Edmondson from KKFI 90.1 Kansas City Community Radio was kind enough to conduct a phone interview with me just before the OutMusic Awards.  He is one the hosts of the Tenth Voice, an LGBT radio program.  Click below to hear it.

I got a chance to talk with Tomas from TE Talk about the Velocity Awards, Barbados Music Awards, and some upcoming projects I’m working on.  Tomas is an artist, record producer, and a good friend (he suggested that I submit for the Outmusic Awards:) Listen and enjoy:)

I had a great time talking with Cassandra on Good Morning Barbados TV, I didn’t enjoy getting up at 4:30 AM to videotape the show… lol, but the experience was truly amazing. A big thank you to Ingrid:)

I’m excited to be doing this show again Joes Pub with Rome Neal and all these talented singers & musicians.  Last year “All Out Jazz” was a blast, its good to be apart of the Fresh Fruit Festival again.

On behalf of the Student Operated Press…..

Chase Von: Nhojj, this is a true pleasure! So on behalf of the Student Operated Press and myself I really want to thank you! When I got that music gift from you I figured why not ask him for an interview? Worst case scenario he’s too busy, so I was pleasantly surprised when you wrote back and said let’s do it! So again thanks for sharing yourself with our readers!

Nhojj: Thank you so much for extending the invitation – things have been really busy this year with the release of the new disc Soul Comfort but this has always been my dream, so I’m counting my blessings.

Chase Von: You’ve led a very interesting life! Growing up in Guyana and then moving to Trinidad and Tobago before making your way to the U.S. and New York. I’ve read your father was a Minister and you began singing in church at the mere age of six with your sister also playing the organ as well! And that you were appearing on radio stations and eventually even performed for the presidents of Guyana and Trinidad!

I had so much fun chatting with Walter Greene.  I am honored that he took the time to talk to me about my lastest CD “Soul Comfort” and what it was like growing up in Guyana.  Walter Greene is editor at Carib News and kindly invited me to perform at the Guyana Fashion Weekend 2008.  Thank you Donna Dove for connecting us.
