Showing my support to my transgendered family

Very few trans artist if any have actually placed trans related songs in their albums, it seems to be a taboo of sorts. However, I am true to my transgenderism and my trans family. I will never hide who I am, nor forget about my transfamily. Here are clips of two songs one for my MTF sisters and the other for my FTM brothers.






I hope you enjoy the tunes. Album will be out soon.

Much Love

Clips and more Previews

I am like a kid awaiting Santa, waiting for my CD to finally be done. I can't express how long it has been since I have been wanting to make this CD, but just never got around to it, and no wonder there is a lot of work involved, lol. But none the less I have made the plunge and my baby will be born soon.

In the mean time here are some more clips of some of the songs that are on the album, I hope you enjoy the messages and my music style.

This song I wrote for my GLBT family and their plight for marriage




This song is my thoughts on the enslavement and guilt ridden belief that God only has one son who he sacrificed for the world. The whole story makes no sense. Jesus was a prophet in my eyes who came to free us from religion, we killed him and created the dogmatic belief we see before us today. I respect every ones belief system, these are my views and as an artist music is my canvas.



Much Love

some more previews for you

I write from my heart and I have a tremendous love for humanity, my sweet, sweet earthly family. Here is a glimpse of a song which has both Spanish and English lyrics, I put the English portion for you along with a little picture show. Enjoy




Love you

Inching along

Hey guys after a painful 5 weeks with mixing and mastering, finally I got my master and was able to sent it off to Disc Makers. Hopefully the next stage is smooth and rapid so that I can bring to you Enslaved the Album. I have worked extremely hard on this project and hope it will open doors for me, and hearts and minds for others. I want to transmit information to help others break free from their chains. Unconditional love is the answer, not religion, not politics and definitely not finances. We are like babies in the path of growth and spiritual knowledge, but we are closer than we were before and timnes are changing.




Much Love to you my earthly family and I hope you enjoy the CD when it's done. I always think of you in every step I make and know you guys are the fuel that drives me.

Almost

I am excited and totally stoked, it is sounding fantastic, beyond my expectations. You won't be disappointed. Here is a sneak preview of my favorite song on the track. I have 80 songs and counting that I have written and according to those who have listened they are all hits, but I particularly have a special place in my heart for this one. The 16 track Album has something for everyone, I have a great feeling about this.



I am thankful to the source that provides me with my talent and allows me to share it with you.

Much Love

Mark Angelo

The making of a dream part 3

After a hard long week, the recording process is finally over. I am excited to see the final product and be able to share it with the world. Ever since I was a child I always dreamt of making records and being a performer. I lost my singing voice when I underwent hormonal therapy and changed my gender. It was a great loss, but I had to deal with it since aligning my gender was just as important.

I decided to pursue my music career anyway, and figured that I still had a voice in me. My music comes from the heart and I have fun doing it. I hope you have fun listening to it, and can share the joy with me. I will keep you posted on the progress. In the meantime enjoy some of the clips I have put together so that you too can share the journey with me.

Much Love

Mark Angelo

The making of a dream part 2

Hey guys, well another recording session under our belt it has been three days in a row, unfortunately we didn't record the first night from all the excitement, and we have had several occurrences with the camera and all, but I have tried to salvage as much as I can to put together the memories and process of this wonderful journey. This dream has become a reality for me as has aligning my gender. Dreams do come true never give up. It all starts by loving yourself and honoring who you are. Here is the video from Friday nights session. Many thanks to Alex Grant owner of Home Sweet Home Studios,this young man is a hard working soul with a heart of gold who I will be forever grateful for meeting. I thank my best friend, my wife who has supported me along the way through all my endeavors and journey. I love you sweetie, buckle up cause the fun has just begun. To all my fans do know I do this for you, I love you all so very much and hope I can bring a smile to your face and touch your hearts in ways no one has. To the Source up above that inspires me and helps me put words on paper and strum the right notes on the guitar I thank you and know I am forever grateful for the life you have provided me, you complete me and I understand you fully, and I promise I will bring forth the message and help my human family get you too.




Love is the answer, love is the way. Live life to the fullest, allow your creative self to flow and be aligned with your higher source which lives through your experiences. Harm no one, not intentionally, be of service to others and live your life as if it where your last.

Love always

Mark Angelo

4 month update

Hey guys it's been a while since I wrote a few lines on this blog. I am happy to say that things are going very well. Violet is working as a hair stylist, and I applied for my Occupational Therapy license here in New Mexico and got it. I am interviewing at the moment and seeing what my best options are. Here are a few pictures of my Testosterone update and video.

Divinity, who died and made them boss?

In God's Image


We are constantly told that we have created an abomination and how dare we change what God made? Well God gave us brains, did he/she not? Provided us with the intelligence to heal ourselves and each other. We on the other hand have chosen to destroy and mock each other, instead of loving each other as he/she intended us to do. Here is a video I made for a Catholic priest who asked me to say how I felt.





Respnse from the soon to be priest:

Hi Mark

Thank you so much for putting your thoughts together like that, I promise that I will show it.
I really do hope that you have never fallen victim to any form of bullying or disrespect from anyone, but especially from any Christian ministers.
Human beings can't help to fear what they don't understand, and sometimes people, particulary with people in positions of power, can't cope with that fear and so it turns to hate, it turns to violence and it turns to pain. And that, of course, is wrong.
Thank God for people like you though Mark who are doing your best to enable people to understand the whole issue of gender dysphoria.
Little by little, step by step, hopefully people will come to understand it and come to see it from a transgenders experience.

AS THE WORLD TURNS

I am amazed at the amount of trans men popping out of the wood work, literally. When I first discovered there was a name for what I felt, there where only a few trans men around. You could find a few trans men's website, and you tube had nothing, well maybe three, and they where trans women. Now, it seems as if it is a plague, a virus gone wild. Hey don't get me wrong, I think it's great. The more the merrier, my theory which I was spreading on national TV is actually come true. I have been quoted, saying that it will become an epidemic because of all the hormonal and chemical war fare out there, the numbers where going to be rising.


You see I believe that women where exposed to androgenic herbicides, pesticides, and by products that masculinesed the brain in a female fetus, causing gender dysphoria. The same chemical weakened the androgenic effects in a boy fetus. Of coarse you will get those naysayer that will condem my words, but the proof is in the pudding. We are growing in numbers. Don't believe me do a search on you tube on trans men, FTM, or transsexual, and see what you will find.

Any way, I feel so passe. Before, I felt kinda of special, but now, I am just one of many. I am also glad that I wrote a book, The Mirror Makes No Sense, made several documentaries, appeared on numerous television shows, and helped educate and set the ground for the young trans generation.


I do have some advice for those who are embarking on their journey, take your time, enjoy the process, be proud of who you are, and don't ever think about stopping your hormones. I made that mistake, and now I am having to go through puberty number 3. Once you stop taking Testosterone, the hair on your body will fall out, I am living proof of that. Oh, and that female shape we so desperately wanted to get rid off, will come back.

Guys, check out my book, you can order it at amazon or directly from the publishers website, I have the links above. Please support my work, even if it's a small donation. Well here are some pictures to show you the progress of my transgression after being off T for a year.
Blessings to all

Mark Angelo

6 weeks on T

2 months on T and hair is finally starting to come back.

Some recent pictures

Being off T for a year created many changes on my physique, changes I was not happy with. I lost the majority of my body hair, muscles and I had lost me.

People are not aware of the importance of hormones, they are everything and I can honestly say they are. I had lost my sex drive and my appetite for life, I don't know what I was thinking. Well any how I feel like I am going through yet another puberty stage. I am starting to get the pimples and everything that comes along with it. I guess I would safely say that I am the first person or one of few who has had three puberty stages in their life.

I am happy that my sex drive is back, my muscles and most of all me. Balance is a beautiful thing.

Back On Testosterone after a year off

Hey guys, it's been a while since I have blogged and wanted to update you on a few things. My spiritual quest has allowed me to grow as an individual but I had neglected my physical side. One of the things I learned during my quest is that balance in needed with everything. So needless to say I am back on Testosterone and feeling better than ever. I had lost over 25 pounds of muscle in the year I was off T, and I was starting to see some female features coming back on my frame, so needless to say that freaked me out and I am now working endlessly to get my body back and better than ever. I will be posting pictures and keeping you guys updated on my progress.

I plan to put on lots of muscle and size and this I will accomplish with a solid work out routine, nutritional plan as well as my hormones. So feel free to write me with any questions or concerns: markangelocummings@yahoo.com

Dont Hinder My Gender

Happy Holidays

Hello Friends

It's been a while since I have blogged, and to tell you the truth there is so much to say, but I have not really been in the talking mood. I have pursued a spiritual path that has taught me to say less and be still. Sometimes we learn more this way. Well any way just wanted to wish all my transgender family a Happy Holiday, I will start making more trans videos and sharing with you my spiritual path.





I have stopped taking Testosterone for spiritual and health reasons and will most likely be making videos regarding this matter. I hope all of you are in a good place right now, in spite of our economy and world chaos. There are many things heading our way, which most of you are probably not very familiar with. You won't hear it on the news or on your local papers, but trust me when I say, something wicked this way comes.





Any how, stay safe this Holiday Season and let me know if there is anything in particular you want to know, I will make videos or just right a blog about it. My email markangelocummings@yahoo.com

For those of you who have not read my book yet, The Mirror Makes No Sense, you can purchase it directly on this site, it will safely take you to AuthorHouses' web page and you can order it there.

Much Love to you and yours




Mark Angelo Cummings

I found a new home after my spiritual journey

Hey guys it has been a major experience and journey. I have put over 5000 miles on my vehicle and seen so many beautiful things. Life is amazing if we only give it a chance and stop listening to those who's interest is to see us fail and behind bars. Learn to think for yourselves and question the system. Live to the fullest, and stop being slaves. Any way if you want to see my journey it is on you tube under my play list called a new beginning. My you tube channel is:

I now reside in Silver City New Mexico, what a place, I can proudly call it home. Unchain yourselves and live it up, become one with your higher self, be love and be well.
