CJ Sola

My mission with Genrerama is to use music to promote and encourage freedom, self-expression, connection, education, and an appreciation of diverse cultures and ideas.
Music, like most art forms, offers a unique way to explore everything from different cultures to science to emotions. Because of this, I started writing picture books designed to help children explore different genres. Many adults said they picked up something new from the books as well. So, I expanded to create books about music production as well as creating unique songs and t-shirts. My shirts are influenced by music in general but also by spreading messages of peace, harmony, self-acceptance and more. I hope that whatever I put out into the world can spark curiosity and inspire conversation.
