Tunde Ra and Tahar Qa, I found this website just now--definitely Guided here. Words cannot describe fully what is in my heart, but I will say that I am so thrilled about your upcoming book, album and other projects. So many of the books out on Jimi are by people who never knew him, and much distortion and downright lies have been perpetrated against him. At long last, the real truth will be told. Jimi would be proud! Love and peace to you always. God bless you. Dear Mssrs. Tunde Ra and Tahar Qa,

I found this website just now–definitely Guided here. Words cannot describe fully what is in my heart, but I will say that I am so thrilled about your upcoming book, album and other projects.

Love and peace to you always.

I tried to look you guys up online and finally ran across this article about your pedning release. I can't wait to check it out. Thanks for staying true friends of Jimi's and true friends to the same vision you all shared since that magical time brought forward to today and hopefully long into the future. Keep Ghetto Fighting my brothers! Being a long-term Jimi fan, I must have seen you two brother’s interviews at least 500 times on various video releases which I have on DVD.

The Aleem Brothers aka Ghetto Fighters are a rare breed of intellectual music producers & historians, in line with Gamble, Huff, and Bell, the global African community has secretly treasured. The Aleems proficiently define Master Musician Jimi Hendrix's musicology in cosmic melodic tunes, harmony, composition, song, and, in juxtaposition to Jimi's celestial but lyrical words, lines, and/or libretto. In other words The Aleems are some heavy dudes who are now elevating Hard rock, blues-rock, acid rock, psychedelic rock, and Hip Hop to the TIP TOP where you don't stop while representin da Creme of the Crop. The Ghetto Fighters movin up from the rear: So ShakeDaSpear, Shake Despair, & Re-Shape Your Sphere in dis musical hemisphere. So "Release Yourself" like Jimi's Rays of the New Rising Sun.
