New York Avenue, Atlantic City, New Jersey AP WORLD An 501c-3, tax deductible organization built on the legacy of a beloved son, doing our part to strengthen families and inspire communities during difficult times. Professional basketball player, DeAndre’ Bembry of the Toronto Raptors, launched AP World in memory of his brother, Adrian Potts. Adrian celebrated his brothers’ accomplishments and planned to be sitting alongside DeAndre’ to watch the NBA draft on June 23, 2016. Adrian helped plan the draft party with their mother, Essence. Essence dedicated her life to helping her sons achieve success and was devastated when she received the dreaded phone call no parent ever wants to hear. In the early morning of June 11, 2016 literally days before the much-anticipated draft, Essence received the tragic news from Adrian’s father. Her 20-year-old, ambitious, fun-loving and tenacious son, was shot and killed near the University of North Carolina, Charlotte campus. This tragedy had a shocking and paralyzing effect on the Bembry family. Knowing where to find support and assistance while planning a funeral service, dealing with unimaginable grief and the reality of life without a son, brother and best friend, were overwhelming for Essence and DeAndre’. This family tragedy served as the catalyst for DeAndre’ to develop a support system that could be an anchor and a resource hub for other families who may have to take a similar journey through grief.

  • Fourplay Bio XRIJF 13Th Edition, June 20 – 28, 2014 for Two Decades
    Fourplay Bio For two decades, the contemporary jazz quartet known as Fourplay has enjoyed consistent artistic and commercial success by GraftinG elements of R&B, pop and a variety of other sounds to their unwaverinG jazz foundations. In the course of a dozen recordings – six of which have climbed to the top of Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz Album charts – the superGroup has continued to explore the limitless dimensions and permutations of jazz while at the same time appealinG to a broad mainstream audience. The Fourplay story beGins in 1990, with keyboardist Bob James, who had already established himself as a formidable fiGure in keyboard jazz – not just as an instrumentalist but as a composer and arranGer as well – with solo recordinGs datinG as far back as the mid 1960s. In 1990, James reunited with his old friend, session drummer, producer, composer & recordinG artist Harvey Mason (Herbie Hancock, Barbra Streisand, Notorious B.I.G.), durinG the recordinG of James’ Grand Piano Canyon album. Also involved in the project were Guitarist Lee Ritenour (SerGio Mendes) and bassist/vocalist Nathan East (Barry White, Eric Clapton, Phil Collins). The Grand Piano Canyon sessions marked the Genesis of the Group that eventually came to be known as Fourplay. Their self-titled debut album was released in 1991, and included a blend of jazz, R&B and pop. The oriGinal lineup of James/Ritenour/East/Mason stayed toGether for three successive albums, includinG Elixir (1994), a set that features some hiGh-profile Guest vocalists: Phil Collins, Patti Austin and Peabo Bryson. East also delivers some noteworthy vocal contributions on Elixir, and has continued to do so throuGhout most of Fourplay’s subsequent studio outinGs.

  • The Ultimate Accompanist
    THE ULTIMATE ACCOMPANIST SINCE THE ’60S MUSICIANS HAVE melded jazz with rock, pop, R&B, and classical music. But few have explored those blends with the tireless vision of pianist, producer, and composer Bob James. After a career of 40-some years, 40-some solo albums, and collaborations with everyone from jazz greats Grover Washington and George Benson to pop greats Paul Simon and Neil Diamond, James remains a restlessly creative force. “I've always had eclectic taste,” says Bob. “I’ve always been interested in combining different—and sometimes really disparate—elements in order to arrive at some - thing nobody else thought of before.” That spirit is particularly evident in the ten albums James created with Fourplay, an all-star quartet consisting of drummer Harvey Mason, bassist Nathan East, and guitarist Larry Carlton, who replaced founding member Lee Ritenour in 1998. “I KNEW IT WASN’T A CONVENTIONAL PIANO, BUT IT FELT SO COMFORTABLE TO ME. I COULD SIT DOWN AND PLAY WITH MY STYLE, THE WAY I NORMALLY PLAY.” 38 39 Discovered by Quincy Jones in 1963, James quickly rose to jazz prominence, most notably via a long stint with vocalist Sarah Vaughan. That gig reinforced James’s tendency to view himself as an accompanist. “I prefer a supportive role to being stuck too far out front,” he says. “I'm more than happy to give up the melodic front line in order to do what I really love: trying to make the lead voice sound better, whether that voice is a singer or a saxophone. That’s one of the reasons I've loved being in Fourplay.
