Over the last few years We Love Soul’s Pre-NYE Celebration has been deemed “The Party Of The Year” and for good reason. Throughout the tenure of this social affair and party, there have been a few legendary impromptu and organic happenings much to the approval of attendees including live performances from singers, musicians and dancers coupled with the great atmosphere provided by sexy venues and the stylings of the We Love Soul DJs. This year will prove no different as our featured guest who will serve as the Master of Ceremony/Host is Phonte of The Foreign Exchange. We will also be celebrating the birthday of one of Chicago’s favorite sons of Soul Music, Duane Powell.
You are invited to join us for this awesome celebration to close 2014 in proper fashion.

Maceo Parker
is synonymous with Funky Music, his pedigree impeccable; his band: the tightest
little funk orchestra on earth.
It's fairly
common knowledge that Maceo has played with each and every leader of funk, his
start with James Brown, which Maceo describes as "like being at
University"; jumping aboard the Mothership with George Clinton;
and his ongoing part in Prince's tours. He's the living,
breathing pulse which connects the history of Funk in one golden thread. The
cipher which unravels dance music down to its core.

About the artist:
Raymond A. Thomas is an award-winning artist, international award-winning filmmaker, and noted creative director. He won 1st place in the 2013 Black Creativity juried art exhibition and is the recipient of a 2014 IPA grant from the City of Chicago’s department of cultural affairs Thomas is a graduate of the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Thomas was hired by Johnson Publishing Company Inc., publishers of Ebony and Jet Magazines where served as art director and creative manager for over 23-years. Thomas’ vibrant acrylic and mix media collage works can be seen in galleries, art exhibitions, corporate and personal collections nationwide. Some of his were acquired by; The Paul R. Jones Collection, The Carol H. Williams Agency, Linda Johnson Rice, and acting legend Sydney Poitier. Thomas currently serves as artistic/creative director for The South Side Community Art Center in Bronzeville.
Artist Statement:
Everyday I am on the grind, confronting the unknown possibilities of my imagination with fearless passion. Through my unwavering devotion to craft and culture, I am reaffirming my humanity through the gift of creating. I have no choice in this because it is simply who I am. I am an artist and like all true artists, our inner urge cannot be bought, taught or bartered. I realized early in my career that my predestination as an artist was directly linked with the burdens I have for my community and for society as a whole. This is not the mission of every artist, but for me, I feel the need to examine the social, spiritual and political realities of our times and how these events interweave through the tears and triumphs of the African American experience. We are travelers all, and in this brief space of time in which we physically occupy this plane of reality, what we leave behind, our works and deeds, can be criticized or canonized for many years to come. Ultimately, I can only hope that my art is experienced, speaks truth and is deemed relevant to the human cause.
