Hi Rico,
Congratulations on your new CD--it's fabulous! Thank you so much for sending it, and for the cool poster. Special thanks for your sweet note--you must have been very busy getting in touch with all your friends! Your CD made me nostalgic for the old days of O-Maya and Agua Libre when I got to hear you more often. It was great to see you at SF Jazz with Keith Terry--hope there's more of that. You are an inspiration to us all. Keep doing it!
Love to all, Maddie, El Sobrante, CA

Rico,
LOVING this album...Congratulations on a GRAND project. Not often that one album has ALL the types of music I love. Very beautiful. Thank you,
Hermano! -Jill, Oakland, CA
Hermano,
I had no idea that the album had dropped so I looked it up on Spotify when I got home. Words cannot describe the sonic experience your new project took me through! Thankfully the language of music needs no words to express itself.
My son and I just listened to the project straight through and turned our living room into a dance floor! I know that the music is good when my baby boy starts bobbin his head and bouncing around. From track 1 - 10 that was the case with this album. It fills my heart with joy to know that my son will grow up listening to your music gaining an appreciation and understanding musicianship and lyricism!
It has been too long since music has inspired me in this way! I feel renewed rejuvenated and healed. It is no exaggeration when I tell you that your music will touch and save lives in ways that you cannot begin to imagine! What I can tell you is that it has touched and saved my life today and that it will serve as a critical source of inspiration and healing in future moments of joy and crisis.
Thank you for raising the bar in such a graceful, humble, and loving way. Thank you for providing a dope alternative to those of us hustlin and grinding day in and day out trying to do the best we can for our loved ones. Thank you for manifesting such uncompromising honesty in your music. And thank you for embodying a radical image of manhood to combat the toxicity that we ride against in our East Oakland community!
In Lak Ech! -Daniel, Oakland, CA
