Reasoning with Jesse Royal about his new endeavor - The Palace Pikney Foundation
|
RFG: What is the Name of your initiative?
JR: Palace Pikney Foundation
RFG: What Inspired the Name?
JR: Well initially the name itself was bestowed upon me by mama Elise who plays for Irie FM she was actually one of the first persons to ever play my song on the radio.

It is our duty to guide them through the maze that we create for them.

If you wish, and we really wish you wouldn't, like to be removed from this list, please reply with REMOVE in subject line.
It will make us very sad if you do, and perhaps your removal will be the one the makes us decide this no longer worth doing at all, and all the information we provide will go away forever and musicians will sit home alone at night and cry because they have no one to play for because no one knows about their shows.
