The smile is a welcome, an emblem and a sneak preview.
Errol Lee wears it all the time, but like the sparkle in his eye, it’s only a hint of his potential.
What does he do? Well, only a firsthand experience will convey effectively what Errol does, but an inadequate synopsis might shed some light: Imagine a crowed, and for the sake of example, let’s say a crowed of high school students, perched on a set of bleachers in a gym. They’re unaffected and cynical, an attitude we’ve all been victim to at times.
Now, enter Errol, beaming as always.
His smile slices the air of indifference and his presence inspires immediate interest.
“Why is he here. “They wonder, “What will he do?”
The beat kicks in. Errol’s body responds. His words turn to a chorus. The youth are transfixed by his movement and his message and within moment, uplifted.
This is Errol’s power.
By seamlessly interweaving dancing, singing, music and a motivational message into a comprehensive character-building presentation, Errol captivates and enriches those fortunate enough to share and experience his mission.
You can’t call them an audience, however, because Errol doesn’t have an audience. He has partners. Errol engages. Errol interact. Errol adapts. Errol responds.
He brings his partners into his performances, imparting moves and music as well as wisdom.
And by the end, the kids are on their feet, clapping, dancing and singing along.
Errol is unique because he ventures where many performers dare not tread.
Before grade school, middle school and high school students, he transcends the “cool barrier” by striking students’ heart strings and speaking to the universal human experience.
Also, Errol doesn’t simply bring his message to the performance. He knows, you have to practice what you preach.
But what truly sets Errol apart from contemporaries is his message.
Errol believes positivity is for people what water and sunshine are to flowers. It nurtures, it enrich, it feeds, and it generates growth.
And, sadly, it’s lacking in our society.
Let’s face it: With rare exceptions, popular culture is on a bad track. It’s a climate of drugs, sex and violence where gunshot wounds suggest credibility, ripped abdominals mean integrity.
Well, this attitude ends with Errol.
In Lee you’ll find a stark countermeasure’ a cure for complacence’ an antidote to apathy.
Errol sings about values we all come to cherish as our paths guide us to understanding.
Errol crosses borders and challenges the norms of contemporary culture.
Errol defies convention.
But as a result, he’s difficult to define- and that’s a good thing.
Think Duke Ellington, Bob Marley, Louis Armstrong or Bob Dylan. Like the groundbreaking artists of our past, Errol goes against the grain.
This pioneer is not readily classifiable because the world has yet to generate a term to describe his art.
But, it’s only a matter of time before we start trying.
