Ego Death
There are pieces of us that fight at every turn; pieces that get jealous, angry, or cocky. I've found that those pieces are part of the ego and it is how I choose to kill the ego that decides how I move forward. 'Ego Death' is a song about killing the false self; I call 'Ego Death' a visual rebirth and the goal was to capture the many forms of metamorphosis while killing ego in order for true confidence to arise inside of self.

I am a native of Sierra Leone, West Africa, and a retired U.S. Army veteran with 23 years of active duty service. I migrated to the United States in 1988, seeking an education and a better life. I consider myself a born artist who grew up with the gift of drawing. Though I studied arts at the University of Maryland Global Campus. I probably did not learn much because every project was effortless, with an "A" as a final grade.
