Shannon Sanders, award-winning music producer and songwriter, has a a message for men: man up.
As the music director for India Arie, Sanders helped create videos for her hits “Brown Skin” and “Video” among others and is ready to debut a video of his own. The song carries the message “It takes a man, to teach a man, to be a man,” asking men to “man up” and raise their sons.
“Thanks to my grandfather, uncle and dad, I was able to receive truths about becoming a responsible man…things that I could pass along to my [children]…those insights became a song,” shared Sanders.
It’s important for men to honor their commitments and to be responsible.
"Learning to ‘Man Up’ is a daily process for us all and I’m simply hoping the song will seek to not just remind men about our roles in the community, but inspire and encourage them too.”
