Living Ego Free… John Graham “The Vege10Nerd”

On the journey of networking with L3GACI, artist on the rise John Graham, The Vege10Nerd, as he is more commonly known, caught our attention.

An artist not seeking the lime light, however spreading the light we wish to say. Exposing listeners to unique lyrics that cause a movement in society; Create, Inspire, Evolve. A mantra of mine, L3GACI and John’s he states “I understand that I have an obligation to spread light to those in dark places…” Using his “Ego Free” style to spread his message. His smooth flow and beats combined lead way for his own L3GACI to take off. A genuine and spiritual man, a proud father and hard working musician. He creates sounds that we eagerly added to our days playlist.

“When I create music it is solely to express a message that is meant to inspire change in others and bring out the best in themselves for the benefit of the world at large. My art imitates life in that sense.”

His musical journey, falling no where short is an extension of himself. In his recent creations, a favorite being Mirror Music, he exposes listeners to himself and his mission. Going the distance to expose his vulnerability and taking grasp of concepts similar to L3GACI, he embodies the essence of what being “Ego Free” can obtain.
Nothing better then his own words can describe his music and mission, we had a few words with John…

Q: What do you hope to accomplish with your music?
A: Music for me is simply another vehicle of connecting with people in an effort to assist them in achieving the best versions of themselves. I create music that is meant to inspire thought, self examination, honesty, and growth. It is my deepest desire to see the listener experience my work and then carry on the message of positivity and truth to those around them. It is said that to create change you must first be the example of the change you wish to see in others. That is the motivation behind Ego Free music and my body of work thus far.

Q:So far what journey has your music taken you on?
A: That is a phenomenal question! Music for me is a reflection of who I am the time I create it. The recent creations like “Ascension Methods”, “The Reflection Series”, and “Mirror Music,” mark my evolution not only musically, but also spiritually, consciously, and socially. I understand that I have an obligation to spread light to those in dark places, therefore I must be responsible with each and every word I utter. When I create music it is solely to express a message that is meant to inspire change in others and bring out the best in themselves for the benefit of the world at large. My art imitates life in that sense.

“…music is simply a companion to the listener on their journey…”

Q: If there is one thing you want your listeners to learn, experience,
gain from your music, what would that be?
A: I wish for the listener to remember that they have the power to change the world by taking control of what they give their attention to. It is said that your reality is shaped by the thoughts you keep. We are such powerful beings because we have the ability to think it and then manifest that thought into something tangible. The music is simply a companion to the listener on their journey meant to remind them of this power and encourage them to use it for the benefit of the world around them.

Another L3GACI in the making, John Graham, The Vege10Nerd follows true on the way to Create, Inspire, Evolve Society. Take a moment to be inspired and follow his music. Truly witness a L3GACI, We are, are you?

A moment with OutwordlyFabulous

In the recent weeks L3GACI was invited to a performance by the talented spoken word artist, Pandora Scooter. Her show, OutwordlyFabuous, written and performed by Pandora Scooter, directed by Cedric Hill and brought to you by Fushico Entertainment & To and Fro Productions, is a campaign hoping to reach the ears of hundreds. A message composed of compassion and total inclusivity with the hopes to educate society on the harms of bullying and homophobia.

“We don’t have to like each other…
but we can start by not hating…” ~Pandora

As the lights dim down Pandora Scooter takes the stage, committed to the performance, she doesn’t let her audience go during the 90 minute performance. Loosing herself in the performance for what is nessecary to convey her message, never once holding back. Wasting no time with her monologues, performing about fifth-teen in total, each one hitting the mark on inclusivity.

“The meaning is just in your hearing habit” ~Pandora

Using different methods, referring to primitive id for an explanation on bullying, in a careless free spirited way. Her play on words relays the point across seamlessly effectively with an air of humility and fun. She urges creating safe places for people to share who they are. Time and time again during the performance creating this to allow for audience interaction. Having the crowd shout out emotions, feelings, and respond to her questions, she has a natural ability to control the atmosphere of the performance. My timid self, found my voice shouting out responses during audience interactions, feeling the energy in the crowd, I too felt safe.

“Find where it is safe to share”~Pandora

Taken on a journey through out the show, being exposed to the different sides of bulling. Expressing her speech, exposing ignorance, and teaching respect. Not only exposing outward views on society, in addition showing inward views. Asking questions of what are the other issues? What secrets do you have? How one can only truly be free without secrets. Yet again using personal experiences she leaves the once loudly audience speechless, giving chills from her performance, leaves the audience questioning what secrets are holding them back as well.

“They say the strongest person in the room is without Skeletons”~ Pandora

At the closure of the performance, leaving the audiance with new emotions and in question of ones own actions, leaving me with the urge to spread Pandora Scooters message. I’m left in awe of the talent on how much one women can open my eyes on a new way to view society. A message certainly needed to be heard by all. A L3GACI in the making.

With a show this upcoming friday, you too can learn a new view and have a refreshing take on how to combat bullying, externally and internally.
Pandora will have a show this friday, May 13th starting at 7pm at the Nuyorica Poets Cafe, 236 East 3rd ave, between ave B and C, New york, New york. Come witness a true L3GACI in the making,

“This is not easy, but it is simple, it is simplicity.
With the change of you thoughts,
You can change your world,
We can change the world”~Pandora
