"It’s been my dream since I was 12 to be on stage in front of thousands of fans and they sing every word to one of my songs. My goal is to have my music relate to someone during a tough time in their life, and the song brings them solace. A feeling that they’re not alone."
If you have arrived at this site, that means something has piqued your interest. Whether you have heard my music, want to support in our non-profit community work, or just curious to see what's going on:
Thank you.
I consider this the landing page and accumulation of all the hard work throughout this first year.
This has been a year full of pursuing music, trying build a community to give power to those who need it, and a continuous journey of learning who I am as an individual.
So again: thank you.
You being here means that there is a possibility of a bridge being built between our lives in some sort of way, so I hope you can accept me with open arms as we travel down this journey we call life.
With love,
TommyPAPI

LAtest Release
"besos ardientes", originally produced by Fred Irie, is TommyPAPI's latest release. In collaboration with, international singer, Camilla Cantu, they released this Spanish track on July 15th, 2024. Riddled with afrobeats and afro soul production alongside harmonizations, the two ignite a story about love and passion within the heat of new infatuations. This song was recorded at both TommyPAPI's home studio and Babylon Studios Detroit. It was mixed by Red at Babylon Studios Detroit with mastering by TommyPAPI

All funds are used to either:
- promote TommyPAPI and his peers' music (playlisting, radio placements, or blogs)
- used to push non-profit work forward (purchase of shovels and plastic bags for the Highway Clean-up)

Donations are accepted! Feel free to designate where donations go in the description from the options above! All forms of support are appreciated!
And if you are unable to purchase or donate that is okay! I appreciate the thought, but there are plenty of ways to support without spending money. Following on social medias and encouraging words/feedback goes a long way. Showing support in any non-profit work by supporting physically or sharing the event details to individuals who would be interested. Or simply sharing TommyPAPI's music and social medias to someone who would enjoy this type of content helps tremendously.
