Book of Genius
From the 'Book of Genius' ... Singer, Songwriter and Producer Curtis Mayfield was born in Chicago, Illinois, Mayfield started his musical career in a gospel choir. Moving to Chicago's North Side he met Jerry Butler in 1956 at the age of 14, and joined vocal group the Impressions. As a songwriter, Mayfield became noted as one of the first musicians to bring more prevalent themes of social awareness into soul music. In 1965, he wrote "People Get Ready" for the Impressions, which has been listed in the Top 30 as one of the greatest songs of all time. After leaving The Immpressions in 1970 he went on to release several solo albums including the 'iconic' SUPERFLY soundtrack and was a sought out producer charting blockbuster projects for Aretha Franklin, The Staple and Gladys Knight and The Pips.
The gifted artist taught himself how to play guitar, tuning it to the black keys of the piano, giving the guitar an open F-sharp tuning that he used throughout his career.[. He primarily sang in falsetto register, adding another flavour to his music.

Affirmation
Heavenly Father,
I humbly come to you giving praise and thanks for the wonderful abundance of life. To do your will, by living to be the best me. Is the ability that I try to present daily. To seek and give encouragement. No weapon formed against me shall prosper, the devil is forever busy and challenges always arise. I always know that I can do anything through Christ. Im a living witness of the favor, mercy and grace, that you have shown me. Please allow me to continue on my path as a vessel to spread the word of your beauty, mercy and grace. Continue to help me to be an Angel to those in need. Jesus of Nazareth I ask for dominion and authority over anything that concern and regards me. Continue to Bless my family friends and my foes. For all the wonderful Blessings and Opportunities, in my life I do give thanks. Amen ~
