SWEET MANGO - Recipes

From the gourmet kitchen of drummer Prince H. Lawsha

The music of Prince H. Lawsha's second CD Sweet Mango is an exotic blend of innovative compositions and seductive rhythms that's both irresistibly danceable and soothing to the soul.  Listeners are calling it luscious, delicious, festive and happy music!  The colors and flavors of this world music inspired Prince to design original mango recipes with a tropical 'rhythm party' feeling.  Just as his drumming sways with a tantalizing groove on this CD, Prince's talent in the kitchen is praised for his tasty blend of herbs and spices from around the world.
