These are not the words of a philosopher or a musical historian, but those of a Chicago born Singer/Songwriter/Producer with a desire to "touch the emotions" of today's music public. Like many of his musical idols, Vincent, or Vince as he prefers, began singing in the church. While he continues with his gospel roots, Vince has also branched out.

With a style resting comfortably somewhere between soul and contemporary jazz, with a sprinkle of the Blues, Vince has been blessed to share his talents throughout the US and the Caribbean. His rich baritone voice has been heard from DC's Takoma Station to the Reichhold Center for the Arts in the US Virgin Islands. Vince currently works in, what he calls a “music collective” featuring some of this areas most talented musicians like PJ Morgan, Sean Geason, and Stan Cooper.

2002 was a very busy year for Vince and Chapmuzic Productions. Shortly after completing his second recording, "Back 2 Love", Vince was back in the studio helping produce and engineer the debut CD “Moment of Truth” for DC’s own Temika Moore and a freshman project by the group The Otherside. And as if that was not enough, Vince joined with Keyboardist, Jonathan Davis and Saxophonist, Steven Bundick to form the trio BC & D (Bundick, Chapman, & Davis) and released a jazz flavored holiday CD titled “For You For Christmas.”

"For You For Christmas" was so well received that it nearly sold out in three weeks. The project also found its way to the airwaves and received praise from WHUR’s Jacquie Gales-Webb. “Back 2 Love” features 12 original tunes including one recorded live at the 20th Anniversary celebration of the Reichhold Center. The project also features the production talents of (Jonathan) Davis. According to one reviewer, “This brand of sensuous urban soul is powerful stuff.” Vince’s music can be found locally at Kemp Mill/ Willie's Music and online at www.Chapmuzic.com

"Back 2 Love" was the first project produced by Chapmuzic Productions (CMP). Vince started the production company/recording studio in 1998 to expand his production interests and to help other aspiring artists fulfill their dreams. Look for new music from Vince in 2006 featuring colaborations with Saxman Greg Byrd and members of the 2005 Capital Jazz Challenge winning band Phaze II Jazz.
