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

Lyrics
NOT JUST A RING Duet: ( M=Male, F= Female ) F 1. Upon my finger you have placed this Ring A symbol of the joy true love can bring And for all my days, and in every single way I will dedicate my life to loving you always. M 2. I have searched the Stars to find the perfect one Been to the Moon and far behind the Sun For the life of me, I could never, ever see You were on the Earth and right in front of me. CHORUS (M+F) No, it’s NOT JUST A RING It comes with all the little things GOD has joined our hearts and no one can tear us apart No! it’s NOT JUST A RING I will shout and I will sing Our love is so much more than JUST A RING M 3. At first I was uncertain and unsure I asked myself: “What am I living for?” In and out of my life, do I take you for my wife When like wind-blown sand you’d cut me like a knife ? F 4. I took some time alone to look inside And what I found my heart can’t be denied M+F Now for all our days, forever and all ways Let us celebrate love now and for always. CHORUS (M+F) So, it’s NOT JUST A RING It comes with all the little things GOD has joined our hearts and no one can tear us apart No! it’s NOT JUST A RING I will shout O! let me sing! Our love is so much more than JUST A RING. BRIDGE (Bkground voices) Here comes the Bride ooh! la! la! la! la! lah! REFRAIN M+F Darling, it’s NOT JUST A RING I will shout O! let me sing ! Our love is so much more than JUST A RING. Yes ! our love means so much more than JUST A RING.
