Kinsman Dazz Band [2023] - Ghetto Preacher [ECMD]


The new single from Kinsman Dazz Band was released at the end of May but last week a music video for "Ghetto Preacher" was uploaded to their YouTube channel. 

The song is a social conscience message song written by Michael J. Calhoun which is compared with songs such as "What's Going On", "Wake Up Everybody", "Ball Of Confusion" and "War".

The lead vocalist is, not surprisingly from his voice, gospel singer minister Eddie B. Sands.

Kinsman Dazz Band is an evolution of the Cleveland based Dazz Band who were created as Kinsman Dazz from jazz fusion band Bell Telefunk in 1977 named after The Kinsman Grill where they played (Dazz being a play on jazz).  This incarnation of the group is led by guitarist Michael J Calhoun who was an original member but left the group in 1981. 

Calhoun applied to trademark both names (Kinsman Dazz and Dazz Band) between 2012 and 2014. He was initially successful but was then challenged by founder Bobby Harris who succeeded in having both registrations cancelled. However, as he is now using the name, we assume he must have now obtained the name, or has perhaps more likely circumnavigated it by suffixing 'Band' to Kinsman Dazz?
