Snowed-IN, but STILL WORKING!

Hola there!!! Bretherens & Hermana'ssss!!!!
Outside looks terrible... but shove-able!
Thank GOD!
The storm caused HUGE ice Glaciers to BLOCK PARKING near sidewalks EVERYWHERE!


But back to more important news!
I hope that EVERYONE has SALT, Shovels & Endurance! {no gym membership required} lol




So lately a Brotha- That's Me!
Has been hustling.
I have been working with Models lately...

AND now a Gospel Artist...
There is a Phenomenal Artist named,
April Brown, whom I have known for about 12 years! YIKES! lol
Ever since Freshmen year of HIGH SCHOOL, I have known April.


She is not only a GREAT vocalists, but from her CLASSY STYLE to HUMOR to SKILLS ON DRUMS to DANCE... I always knew she was TOO TALENTED to NOT be KNOWN.




Her Album debut was in May 2013.
Ever since then she has been on a journey to capture young Souls for the KINGDOM.
I am VERY proud of her SUCCESS thus far.
She is Married to an EQUALLY Talented man,
DEMAR BROWN who produced the Album with his EYE's CLOSED!


They got married at my church and I witnessed THEIR LOVE! After the marriage, they had 2 BOYS!!! 5 Years later these two are still kicking it and chasing their dreams as a Family!

Her Album, "The INCEPTION," is AWESOME!...
I am hype about it because She and Demar definitely infused all of their connections, soul, worship, and heart in each and every TRACK. I bump her "DEVOTION-(JERSEY BUMP) Every Morning!
The album instrumentation is awesome... All CHURCH-HEADS no after service or in MUSIC REHEARSAL, the YOUNG INSTRUMENTALISTS tend to show their MUSICAL TALENTS!.... THIS ALBUM HAS THAT!!!! JERSEY-STYLE!!!!!!!!!!!
The worship is for EVERYONE.. I guarantee its not too MUCH  vocal RUNS & SHOUTING... the ALBUM is worth it, especially when it comes to building on your relationship with GOD... @Aprilbrownmusic #aprilBROWNmusic


P.S THEY ARE CELEBRATING THEIR 5th ANNIVERSARY Tomorrow on VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

Mr. SpiFF...at Your SERVICES

 Most people hear my last name and quickly connect it to smoking...
I am Joe SPIFF... not SpliFF... but I get the confusion and have decided to keep my Brand name the same.

If I want to be known and have people pronouncing my name CORRECTLY, a brother needs to earn that respect...
A challenge that I will generously accept.
 Now SpiFF is not my original last name... No, that name is way more AWESOME than SpiFF.

The term SpiFF is actually derived from "SpiFFy" that also describes many facets of who I am.

Since Middle School (Grades 6-8 for North Jersey heads-lol)...
I have always stuck to the dress code of uniforms although it wasn't mandatory (cardigan included)
I even wore full suits on ordinary days...
Constant questions from my peers curiosity about, whether or not it was laundry day soon faded, when everyone noticed I volunteered to dress up for no reason, but to feel good.

My parents have encouraged me to chase my dreams and not let anyone stand in my way.
I grew up being in everything and anything...
I honestly always wanted to CONQUER lol...
But I am motivated by challenges...

From Singing to Writing Songs to PR-Consulting to Photographer to Producer to Play/skit writer to a Performer... I have worn and will continue to wear many HATS.
Here some of my photography

DC-Bred, Jersey Raised with a NY- as my Playground.... 
I am apart of a Creative outlet group called, "Ars Gratia Artis," which simply means "Art for Art's sake."
Out of NJ, 3 men (including me) have come together to release our creativity in each and every single way we can. We are not limited to clothing products or anyone's standards. Our only limit is that REST is needed for health reasons... We all would be up all night-EVERY NITE! lol...
But I shall post a better introduction of the AGA outlet...
I am BACK!


 Who Scared? lol

To the STA-A-A-RSSSS!!!!

I am Launching the opening of my very own YouTube page, showcasing my SONGS. If this does not get me through the door to being a HEAVY-HITTING songwriter, I don't know what will. I have changed a lot over these couple of months in 2012. Discipline and Ambition is going to get me to the TOP. I have had LOTS & LOTS of Hang-ups, but my greatest fear is not knowing what and how much exactly I am CAPABLE OF... So I have decided to grab stop dreaming and rag my destiny up & Take it to the MOON, Take it to STA-A-A-RSSSS!!!!
I'm ready to be wealthy, give my parents all they deserve... Let's kick things up a notch, why don't we!

My lastest installment...
"Claims" which is meant for a female singer, is about a girl tired of her "busy" boyfriend. Enjoy.

Heart-Broken.

This week I have been hurt.
I am HEART-BROKEN.
One of my bestest Friend and I had a fallen out that was fatal.
I rather not type anymore on the subject.

A major part of me being HEART-BROKEN, is due to the death of of my Boss, Friend, Granny & #1 Supporter!
I have not been able to grieve about her yet.
It actually did not hit me until today.
Even writing this I am choking up.
She died on Sunday from Cancer.
She fought long and hard.

She was such a loving woman.
She always encouraged me to strive for success and my education.
Even to the point where she told people she was my Grandma and I never disagreed.
I should have, would have and could have done a lot of things before her death...
But I am happy with the memory I have of her...
Last time I saw her was at my Bro's college Graduation.

Mrs. Sharon Graham!
I miss and love you, oh so MUCH!
I am happy you left us during your FAVORITE MONTH!
BLACK HISTORY MONTH!!!!
I use to love the knowledge she spat out!
I dedicate this posting to you!

Sincerely,
J. Spiff



This is a pic from the last time I saw her...
Such an inspiration...
