Music often plays a great role in getting us through difficult times by lifting our spirits and providing a much needed break from life that calms the soul, relieves stress, and allows us to return with a new focus. I'm dedicating this journey through Uplifting-Afro-Latin-Soul to the life and memory of Matt Cannon (DJ Kwest_on) who was part of my Chicago DJ community, my Mi Casa Holiday family, and a true lover of soulful music.
