A DREAMER’S DREAM: A JOURNEY INTO BLACK HISTORY & FUTURE WITH TYRESE GIBSON, JILL SCOTT & BLAIR UNDERWOOD


Tyrese Gibson Celebrates Black History Month with Jill Scott and Blair Underwood in Historical Tribute

 In a world of tragedy and triumph, actor/musician Tyrese Gibson takes the ultimate leap of faith with A Dreamer’s Dream.  “This was a God sent vision, an idea and I was obedient and moved on it,” says Tyrese Gibson. “I hope the messages in this tribute is embraced and received around the world.”    

A Dreamer’s Dream comes on the heels of Black History Month and poses the ultimate questions of responsibility and accountability. Written and produced by Tyrese Gibson, A Dreamer’s Dream tells the tale of a man at the crossroads of life. At his wits end, he reaches out for answers only to be graced with the presence of the ultimate dreamer Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.  and his wife, Coretta Scott King who proposes answers to some of the many plights which most Americans face today.

In addition to Tyrese Gibson, A Dreamer’s Dream features Blair Underwood, Grammy Award Winner for Best Spoken Word Album, 2008. Blair, as a man in a state of pain and rage, begs to ask the question which many of us ask every day: “What are my next steps?”  
“This exploration into the possible thoughts and feelings of Dr. Martin Luther King and our world today, is unforgettable!” says Blair. “I’m honored to have been asked to participate.”

“This video moved me and educated me. I am so grateful to Tyrese for asking me to be part of such an inspirational project,” says Jill Scott who voices the role Coretta Scott King. “Dr. King’s vision has NOT been forgotten.  Watching this touching video will remind us all that there is much to be done within ourselves.”

A Dreamer’s Dream ask the question as to where would we be today had Dr. King lived?  What kind of society would we be had Dr. King’s dream been fulfilled? A Dreamer’s Dream forces one to recognize the role that  s/he plays in today’s often tumultuous world.

“This was not an opportunity, it was a responsibility. We are amongst a lost generation looking for inspiration and a sense of direction. My love and prayers will continue for the King family and all of the civil rights leaders who sacrificed everything to get us to where we are today,” says Tyrese.

A Dreamer’s Dream is available through social networks:

A Father's Day Poem by Tyrese Gibson







On this day, we as fathers are celebrated around the world...

I am more than just a man.. I am a father.
A boy is excited about the opportunity to be a dad.  
A father is more focused on the "Responsibility" of being a father.

As a father it is a responsibility to create the standards in our kids' lives,  I am not just semen. I love you, and you love me and in our family we created "we" in our children... 

I am power, I am intelligence, I am education, I am integrity, I am God fearing spirituality,  I am consistent... 
As a father, sometimes I have to be away. I am constantly in the field hunting for my family's survival. 
I am king therefore you are my queen. President Obama has created a new standard and removed every excuse a black man could ever have of NOT being a father...  
I am more than I appear to be, I am more than just a man. 
I....AM....FATHER!!

Fathers... Even though it seems like your effort is sometimes overlooked, God is watching and he knows your heart. 

To all of the REAL FATHERS around the world..
Through good, bad or ugly relationships with the mother...
If you are NOT there for your kids, it is ONLY the kids that suffer in the end.
Take a stand and do any means necessary to be a part of your kids lives.

God knows your heart... God bless all FATHERS around the WORLD for Father's Day! 

Salute!!

How To Get Out of Your Own Way - Book Review


I've been getting amazing reviews on the book and tweets from you the fan and supporters and it has been beyond overwhelming .. But this review right here really shook me up and I had to share it with you.. I was an emotional wreck for a day after I read it.. From the bottom of my heart for those of you who already ordered my book Thank You!! And for those of you who are still iffy!! If you've never made an investment in yourself in your life.. You are only 12 bucks and an overnight package away from doing it..  Enjoy!! 

"Tyrese conveys a profound message in the pages of How To Get Out Of Your Own Way. By not holding back, you learn how to navigate and become aware of your dilemmas in life and unapologetically remove anyone and anything that does not better you. You have no choice but to digest and reflect as Tyrese reveals his truths. He takes you to that uncomfortable place that you pretend does not exists and forces you to demand more for yourself. 

You will be deeply affected by his intelligence, wisdom, honesty and dignity. Each chapter unveils some of his most intimate thoughts and childhood memories; the good, the bad and the ugly. He challenges everyone to understand where you are in life and change for the better. That old saying is true, 'Once you know better...you do better.' And after reading How To Get Out Of Your Own Way, I am doing just that and you will too! You will start living the life you have always deserved." - Whitney McDonald, MTV Radio

Pre-Order HOW TO GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY



The Next Movement...

"In How To Get Out of Your Own Way, Tyrese wholeheartedly shares his life experiences and how he discovered a new roadmap of conscious compassion and love to define his true potential." -- Deepak Chopra, author of The Soul of Leadership

Here are the links to pre-order my book!!
"I've watched Tyrese for many years — I've watched him succeed; I've watched him fail; I've seen him as a beneficiary of serendipity, and I've watched him suffer at his own hand.  And in the recent years, as we've become friends, I've witnessed Tyrese Gibson learn to GET OUT OF HIS OWN WAY as he wrestled his destiny from the fickle hands of fate." -- Will Smith

"How To Get Out of Your Own Way, is a triumph.  Tyrese will shock and amaze you with how he overcame the odds, and became a superstar. This star of the Transformers sequel will show you how to transform your life in this amazingly candid book!" -- 
Rev Run
