K-Gi has been writing for over 30 years. He resides in Canada. He has been encouraged and urged by friends and fellow musicians to share his creations. Hence, a debut album! 'If It Were Not So...I Would Have Told You!' speaks to all music lovers of various genres. A Journey from sandy beaches to salmon-filled rivers; from uplifting parties to candle-light dinners. Love Ballads, jazzy Latin guitar instrumentals, classical themes, R&B and Rap, African dance and drum music, Pop, Rock and Reggae. A diversity of genres is also reflected in K-Gi's lyrics, which paint a wide array of different pictures. From excursions in 'Paradise' to bouncy fun-filled party scenes, from social critical issues to father-daughter relationships. At present K-Gi is working on his second album, which will include several Reggae and crossover songs. He has recently written a Cumbia instrumental for a documentary about travelling a long forgotten pole-post road in Mexico. K-Gi also works with a well known dancer in France and provides the music for her African Dance show and dance classes. He feels that a good marriage between words and music (prosody) can if only briefly, uplift the human spirit and give it wings to fly. Yet, as important as music is to him, he envisions it as ‘just a slice of bread on the table of life’. Though somewhat of an introvert, K-Gi’s altruistic nature immediately surfaces when engaged in lively discussions. He asserts that no one will truly be safe, well-off and at peace until we ALL are! He believes that we are all connected to each other whether we know it or not; like it or not. In particular, he mentions how quickly we forget where we have come from once we become successful; forget what it is like to be hungry once we are full; or what it means to be cold while we are warm. However, once we are loved we never forget. It is therefore incumbent upon us all to do all that we can to spread love, peace, joy and compassionand to contribute towards the reduction of tragedies and sorrows globally. It is K-Gi’s ambition that music will afford him the opportunity to make a differenceno matter how small. Drop by drop is the bucket filled. Though many are called, few are chosen. “If it were not so he would have told you!” K-Gi Kage

Story behind the song
Like the Pink Salmon, we have to find our way back home.
Lyrics
THE PINK SALMON Copyright 2004 Shake’m Music Words and Music: K-Gi Scarlett All Rights Reserved RAP Let’s all find our way back home And be like The Pink Salmon Let us gather with our own So much like The Pink Salmon Let us walk and never run And be like The Pink Salmon Let us fight without a gun So much like The Pink Salmon 1. We have lost our way back home So unlike The Pink Salmon Need to take a closer look To avoid the bait or hook Can’t indulge our every whim We may sink we’ll not swim And we’ll end up on the run So unlike The Pink Salmon CHORUS Now all the ladies if you’re on your own we know you’re not alone (Pink Salmon) And all the fellows if you’re on the run we know you’ll come on home (Pink Salmon) So, if you’re near me and you hear me holler with me. Louder! Pink Salmon (Pink Salmon) And if you’re with me then don’t quit me only hit me with The Pink Salmon (Pink Salmon) 2. Did you loose your spot or place In the crowd another face And you’re left there on your own Just recall The Pink Salmon Now you feel like such a fool Separated from the school Will you stay now that she’s gone So unlike The Pink Salmon CHORUS Come on home just like The Pink Salmon (4x) 3. Have you lost your way back home So unlike The Pink Salmon Did you take a closer look To avoid the bait and hook You indulged your every whim Now you sink and can not swim Still, ahead lies salvation So much like The Pink Salmon CHORUS repeat Come on home just like The Pink Salmon (3) OUTRO
