I moved to Memphis, TN in 1998 straight out of Law school. I wanted to pursue a career in entertainment law; however, I was interested in the gospel music industry. Since Tennessee is known for Christian / Gospel music, I thought it would be a great state to get my law license. Many people don’t know that I have a lot of family here. I have great aunts, a great uncle, second cousins and my mother’s brother, Marion “Uncle Bro” McCall, who live in Memphis.
I had not seen Uncle Bro since I was a teenager. From what I have learned, he fled to Memphis when a local gang in Gary, IN placed a hit on his life. The family shipped him south for his own good. Once in Tennessee Uncle Bro got into his fair share of trouble. He even spent some time in jail. By 1998 he had settled down to some degree. No one in the family, who lived in Tennessee, kept up with him except Aunt Dorothy. She made it her business to keep up with Uncle Bro and to make sure he was okay. Since I was moving in with Aunt Dorothy, keeping up with Uncle Bro became my business by default.
