This track began as a moment, not a plan.
It was written by the late T.K. Carter alongside Harold Brown, founder and original drummer of the band War, with contributions from his grandson, Anthony Wilmore. Its roots trace back to an informal jam session at Harold’s compound during one of T.K.’s visits. No agenda. Just musicians in the room, creating in real time.
Thomas Kent “T.K.” Carter was an American actor and comedian whose career spanned nearly five decades. Born in New York City and raised in Southern California, he began performing stand-up comedy at a young age before moving into television and film. Over the years he appeared in memorable roles such as Nauls in John Carpenter’s The Thing, teacher Mike Fulton on Punky Brewster, and voice work in Space Jam with Michael Jordan, as well as dramatic turns in shows like The Corner, his own show, Just Our Luck, and numerous other television and movie roles that showcased his versatility and warmth as a performer.
Years later, Ray Brown, son of Harold Brown and producer of the track, revisited video footage captured during that session. Hearing it again, he recognized the emotion, rhythm, and intention embedded in the moment and shaped it into the song presented here.
At this time, the track is shared in an unreleased form as a way of honoring that moment and honoring T.K. He was more than a friend of the family. He was family.
Below is the original jam session video, preserved as it happened. This recording grew directly from that moment.
