Bio

Hey, happy belated New Year, my name is PJ Freestyle I am writing this short BIO as I have been encouraged too … as it is very compelling for me to do so.

I have been composing music for some time now. I have been performing since I was 5 years old. I have, in furtherance, performed with a number of wonderful and superb performers over the years, as well as being a soloist. However, due to such happenings in my life, for the past, and as presently is concurrent, I have been working as a pro-se parental advocate, along with my wife, for our special needs son.

It is just recently that I have been able to try such outlets to further my music, due to the artistic stasis due that the Department of Education, due to such systemic and official corrupts, my family and my artistic output had become stagnated with for such, inter alia, violating factors and duration of time.

There are so many issues that are in need of attention. The ones that I have shared so far are quite important. I am very animate about is Accountability in the Department of Education. With such an additional issue that is related to Education is the use of cameras in the classrooms, particularly in the Special Education population. Whereas the student do not have the voice needed, even when us parents are forced to become Pro-se Parental Advocates after the DOE used ACS as a weapon against parents who are proactive in their children’s’ education. Moreover, with the lacking education system that are forced to endure, particularly our students, we are failing children within these days. 

The difficult part of it all, as I can relate, though difficult; and such difficulties through the duration can become natural to deal with, following an Honorable Natural Order of Logic’s. With such allows honorably logical adapting accordingly.

Indeed,
There We Have It … Indeed.
PJ Freestyle
