Adam, a self-proclaimed total nerd, loves everything that has to do with "Star Trek," "Doctor Who," Legos, comic books and writing goofy songs. Born to a white Jewish mother and a Black father, Adam struggled with his bi-racial identity. When his parents split at 4 years old, his mother relocated from New York to Israel where they lived for the next several years. Eventually, they moved to England, where Adam finished school. Adam participated in everything he possibly could pertaining to music, yet he never felt like he knew who he was as an artist. That all changed when he was working at a market in England as a teen and heard the song "Just Friends" by Musiq Soulchild. He immediately resonated with the soul-R&B sound. Once Adam discovered "Dirty Soul," he began to take interest in the greats such as Al Green and Sam Cooke, reconnecting with his Black roots. Currently, Adam and his wife reside in Minneapolis, and they're hoping to start a family of their own soon.

When you don’t remember someone’s name.  Is the choice to reach out to doctors for mental support?  Plus…what do we truly smell like?  What’s creating all of that stink?  Is it a choice? I’m Arroe.  Life is a series of choices.  Who decides when you’re not making it the right choice?  Is it the fear of going wrong?  The greatest lessons in life are often lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts.  It’s time to reopen your heart. Having a choice is a daily gift.  On this highway we learn to trust mirages… What is the choice?

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers.   Who made it ok for employees to mentally and physically check out with the arrival of the holidays?  Plus…Is it better to lie to someone or figure out a way to walk away? I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…
