My Brother�s Keeper: a musical portrait

A profile of a man with two musical identities: Kevin Gift and Wendel Patrick by Aaron Henkin Kevin Gift has been studying classical piano all his life, playing concertos on stages around the world. But a few years ago, this accomplished player started staying up late into the night, fueled by a desire to make a new kind of music altogether. Now he's better known in hip hop clubs as electronic music phenomenon Wendell Patrick. The Signal's Aaron Henkin talks with the musician about his dual artistic identities and the origin of his unexpected alter-ego.
