Teena Marie over the years has managed to become a "cult artist" within the Black
community ever since she first burst on the scene in 1979 with the double sided hit: "I'm a
Sucker For Your Love" & "Deja Vu (I've Been Here Before"). And in today's environment
where on a daily basis we see new young white singers being artificially promoted as
being "soul music artists", the accomplishment of Teena Marie and her astounding
connection to Black America stands as the overwhelming example that these "wannabe
soul artists" (ex: Joss Stone, Amy Winehouse, Justin Timberlake, etc.) should aspire to.

When it comes to Mandrill I am no longer in a position to be un biased.
Not in any way shape or form.
In fact I'm not sure that I am even capable any longer of writing an objective concert review
or album review of any of their shows. It's been quite a while since I have even tried. The
last few times that I have attended a Mandrill show, I have always made sure that someone
else from Soul-Patrol.com has been available to actually write the review.
You see I have truly been adopted as a full fledged member of the "Mandrill Family" over
the years and have quite literally become a part of the group. As someone who strives to be
an objective journalist, it is in many ways the worst possible position to be placed in.
However as a person, I couldn't be happier to be included as a part of the "core team" of
such a collection of individuals. If you ever got to meet these folks, you would want that for
yourself as well. It is a collective of musicians, family members, friends and more that is a
"throwback" to something from the past, while at the same time represents and ideal for the
future of Black music & culture.
