TheLegendsLeague + DJ Lissa Monét Present:
The Difference

A mixtape dedicated to the life of Shakir Stewart and the promise of change provided by Barack Obama.

“What makes us the same may just make the difference”.
- be. (TheLegendsLeague)

I’m honored to have had the incredible DJ Lissa Monét work on this mixtape for TheLegendsLeague. Her track selection was so on point I felt like the idea behind this tape was something that we had been working on for 2 years.

I’m very particular about the music I listen to - not the genre, but definitely the quality and the emotion behind it, and Lissa was able to select tracks that speak directly to me, my experiences, and I’m sure you’ll find out as well, the lives, loves and lows of my ‘readers’ and supporters.

The timing could not have been more perfect, with the history of the world about to take a huge turn tomorrow night with the 2008 U.S. Presidential Election coming to a close. I will definitely be watching with anticipation as the tides turn, for better or worse, and our futures unfold before us. I admit in whole - I fear the results.

There are so many questions to ask. If Obama loses will there be riots? I think so. If he wins, will there be riots? I think so. Will someone attempt to assassinate him? I fear it. I fear it, but I do think so. But I watch him and I’m amazed. I’m amazed at how genuine he is. How much he seems to really care about the only thing that matters on this planet - humankind and kindness. He breathes it. And beyond that, he shares it and commands it within people. We see light in him. We have faith, hope, trust, and are awaiting a change from the governing powers that we as individuals have been trying to evoke in our actions for so, so long. And while I’m no longer religious, I promise you, I will be praying to a higher power for justice and the victory that needs to continue. Because he has already succeeded. He has already scored a win on so many levels in my mind. And should he lose tomorrow, I hope that we never forget the change that he has already provided us - one that says hope is only the precursor to action, and the combination of the two breeds the power to turn your thoughts into voices, and your voices to chants, and your chants to a chance to be heard. He deserves our thanks, and our admiration, and beyond it all - we deserve to provide him with our support.

Enjoy the mix ya’ll. And expect a re-press of the Obamas Time tee to pop up at TheLegendsLeague Shop.
