Big Head Bandz converts pain into wisdom on ‘WE BUILT DIFFERENT’
Very few things or people can make my world stop. My father is my black superhero, and everything I have and achieved originates from his DNA.
Very few things or people can make my world stop. My father is my black superhero, and everything I have and achieved originates from his DNA. My mom and I have a complicated relationship, so when she called me at 1am I knew it was severe. Her voice was weak, and her spirit was shaken. She informs me that my dad had a mini-stroke and was in ICU.
Even though she’s tougher than a shot of Brandy, the possibility of losing her life partner is unimaginable. I replied with three words, “on my way.” A million thoughts raced across my mind in a millisecond, and I starred at vaulted ceilings paralyzed in deep thought.
100,000 people are running through the LAX airport, but at this moment, I can only visualize my dad lying inside a hospital bed fighting for his life.

“The grind never ends, ain’t no days off
I’m trying tell you hard work pays off
Every time I took a L
I learned a new lesson
That’s when I realized
That my L’s were a blessing.”
