Mason Di Emperor,Rebel Soulz Family



Mason Di Emperor is bringing us a little closer into his world. It is a protective space. And rightfully so, since he has a team of talented people as manager Dionne Lawson, a stellar assembly of musicians, and a phenomenal graphic artist producing impressive cover art. They are all in his corner.

This is rare in any industry, and even more so in the arts. And with the golden gate slightly ajar, Mason Di Emperor presents the powerhouse vocals and musical talents of the Rebel Soulz Family.

For many to be an artist seems like such a beautiful career. But many true artists, those that work for the craft and not the adoration, will tell you to venture into this realm with rationality, bravery, and creativity third. While we dismiss the myth of the starving artist, the profession of art is a difficult space to navigate. It is far removed from the loving, gracious, equitable, and interactive space portrayed. Rather, from the perspective of the audience, often what is presented is a caricature of a manufactured truth. A snapshot of three to sixty minutes of exquisiteness in relations to countless hours of brutal hard work. So, we appreciate when artists share their journey. Not the adoration and accolades that converts loyalists into advocates. Rather, true credibility illustrated by the process that shapes their character and product. And even more moving, a reveal of the people behind the fifth wall.

Mason Di Emperor’s simple gesture reflects the depth of his character. Arguably talented with the release of his two albums, Lover’s Rock and Freedom, and literature, Changed Man, within 10 months. He also embraces the importance correlating creativity, quality, and productivity. Possession of a creative gift is just the beginning. Artistry demands dedication to the development of this gift. At times, brutal honesty and labour refine this gift. And a constant polishing to make it sparkle for the benefit of all those blessed to enjoy this honour. This is what separates talent from mastery.

And the more talent one possesses is the higher the expectation to respect this blessing. Even in arguments void of accountability to religion or a higher being, one thing is certain, as observers we always hold the most talented to the highest judgement. Because on the level, if we are truly honest, no amount of self determination and DIY (do it yourself) videos can give us a gift that we do not innately possess. Just life.

Yet, even the gifted shed tears, develop callouses on their ego from countless practice, and more failures and rejection than they often willingly admit. But in the end success is evident, it is then left to us, the observers to take notice. So, let’s have a look at one of Rebel Soulz rehearsals. Get ready because even the rehearsal is on point. This band is pure fire. And if we are fortunate, they will soon touch the road in a city near us. We will keep you posted. ©
