This is a wonderful family. It all begins with the parents and core values. Especially when those values include allowing your children their voices and dreams. Mama and Daddy are the foundation and protection under and around them nurturing everyone to grow and be themselves. A beautiful testimony!

This is really great, I grew up in San Francisco in the Ingleside District aka Lakeview & my brothers/1st cousins had a traditional gospel quartet group called The Sons of the Soul Revivers! We use 2 rehearse in the garage & made so much noise, those were the days!! Congratulations to your family & may Yah(God) continue 2 bless y'all on your journey

[@gregmock6808]

Just subscribed to their channel and love it...they have that Frankie Beverly and Maze love on the run R&B vibe...what a joy!

[@duaneharris6415]

Ur family is amazing 👏 ❤️ WOW 👌 👏 😍 👍

[@tobiwalker7145]

This music is exactly the music that brought my late husband and I together. He lived in Berkeley in the 1960s but he'd grown up in Flint, Michigan and had a love of R&B. I walked into his office one day at work and he had O'Jays and Etta James concert posters on the walls, so love at first sight. I am so glad you work in this same vein, honoring the classics and would love to see you play live some day...

[@user-mx3tk6hp4h]

I love this family ❤

[@kenfre1]

[@CCTH2221-lp2zj]

The funny thing is I found out about them from someone watching El. I started watching and kept thinking who’s this magnificent group and then El came forward and I said “oh he’s here too” LOL. They are sensational🎼
