about

I’ve had so many thoughts, feelings and revelations after the passing of my cousin DJ Core.

I’ve been sad overall.
I’ve been mad at myself and him.
I’ve been prideful in not sharing with my friends how heartbroken I am, and prideful in not admitting to God how heartbroken I actually am. Think about that for a second. As if one can hide anything from God, that's just how pride deceived me. When I’m not doing so well spiritually, its difficult for me to ask for prayer. After-all, asking for prayer says that I’m lacking something, and as I mentioned, pride can keep me from asking or in the least it makes it incredibly hard for me to ask people for prayer. Thank God that HIS word isn’t conditional on how I’m feeling or doing, because then I would truly be lost.

Psalms 34:18 says “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

I thank God for his friendship and being there for me even when I don’t want to admit that I am brokenhearted .

Through all of the feelings I’m so grateful for all of you that kept the Core family in your prayers. We’re all going to miss our son, brother, cousin, nephew, friend and father to 3 amazing boys, DJ. I’m so grateful I was able to reconnect with him first on Facebook, and then in person when he was living in Columbia for a little while. While I was the one to get busy and wrapped up in life, he was always the first to make the call or the message checking on me. He always bragged on his “Lil cuz’s music” and was so encouraging. He’s one of the people that was always telling me to keep pushing forward in my music career. This piece of music reminds me of him for a couple of reasons. When I first made it, I named it “Goldsboro Soul” because it just reminds me so much of my family’s hometown (Goldsboro, North Carolina). Music has always been a way for me to cope with my emotions, so after his passing and especially on the long drive home from the funeral I just wanted to drive and reflect on my cousins life while listening to this instrumental. You can hear the vocal sample saying “I just want to fly free” and it makes me think of DJ even more.

Thank you for your prayers, that you for reading, thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy this tribute to DJ.
RIP Dekevas Jamal Core
