"Farees reminds me of the greats. He's got that Stevie Wonder/Jimi Hendrix vibe yet he's doing his very own thing. Ain't nobody around playing and grooving like him. He's unique and he's a superstar! I'm really glad to be a part of this project."

LEO NOCENTELLI - THE METERS

“This is the most amazing movement to happen with this great music! The welcome return home to Africa! Farees is amazing! The new record is nothing short of outstanding!!"

TAJ MAHAL

“Brother Farees carries ancient spirits direct from the Black pool of genius. This story is true Black 'ourstory'. Farees has taken the old wisdom and has come up with new music that puts you in a trance while it bids you to dance.”

COREY HARRIS

“Mississippi to Sahara is a great record. I love it, and I love how it sounds. I can only imagine the wonderful songs to come from Farees in the future”
