UPDATED: March 29, 2008 Thanks to your prayers and support, I made the leap into the professional world of Gospel music here in Japan. I now have my own web page. For updates of my progress, check this site. Most of the information is posted in Japanese, but the titles should give you a good idea on what's going on. Take a look.

News people! I have finally taken the time to sort the pictures and video clips. I have packaged it all into a decent website. J's Choir doing all we can to do it inspo style.
They name "SCANDAL" as I was fondly named by Inspi (Inspirational Choir) members back in college (NCU) still applies. I am still the fun loving John I was then. I know how to enjoy a good laugh. And since everyone depends of me (or so I like to tell myself), I usually assume the role of "Life of the party".
I sing because I have to... my deepest and most meaningful form of expression.
John is synonymous to aesthetic beauty. I appreciate good art and, I enjoy creating it myself through graphic designing.
Interests
Stevie Wonder visits my city this weekend! Stevie LIVE in concert yow. I will be there on my TEET! Once in a life time opportunity. I am so not missing it. My only fear? They may ask me not to sing so loud. He he.

Hi John! So when are you coming to Europe? I hope you'll have a concert here in Poland one day so I can get those goosebumps (pimples) I use to have when I heard you sing at NCU. Man, what a voice!!! May you continue to sing for Christ.
Hello, John I am Dwight and Angie's friend (Chamra's Sister) from here at La Sierra University. I do not know if Dwight has contacted you yet, but I was researching information on business practices in Japan and i needed help. Unfortunately I was unable to make the trip over there this spring break, however I will be hopefully one day before I leave LSU. I heard so many nice things about you and of course being a Barrett boy from Angie, you would be the one to get me acquainted with the culture over there, since I already do business with a couple companies over there as well. Well looking forward to hearing from you and the advice you will have for me as I expand my business. Thanking you in advance for all your help
Wow, I am very excited to see how you are still using your talents to honor God John! :-) I felt like I was at church at Kingsboro Temple in Brooklyn versus being in Asia. Keep spreading the gospel to the ends of the world and keep strong in the Lord.
So many great things I could say about this brother ,but for sure he is more that a talent , he is a gift filled with Gods love. He is a young man to whom I give much respect for being himself and he was always true to his cause, one who never fails to be John.
Amazing !! John is one of the most wonderful people I've ever met in my entire life. I wish him continued success in his endeavours and dude don't thing your passing through here without stopping by....I would hit you so hard that Madre B would stay in JA and feel it...
SCANDAL indeed!!!! (smile). John's just been a really great person... always the life of the party!!! You can definately count on him for that, and the inspo family just wouldn't have been what it was without him... John baby hope your doing great there in Japan, and keep that fire going, and keep it real baby.
P.S. Your mom talks about you EVERYDAY... but I bet you knew that already.
John has always been a good friend to me. He is so funny that I have to laugh every time I am around him or even just talking to him on the phone. If I am having a bad day, I just need to call on John and my day will get better through all the laughing we do. John, you know our motto for me: I am a very...
John is a cool dude. I consider him a role model and in many ways... "di girls dem man". A true Inspirational bandit, who loves to sing and loves his God... loves his girls!!!! Heheheheh!!! Yeah, its JLP... no I mean JLB!!! The real big man... Literally!!!
Better known to the world as...a plane?no...a star? no.....its...its...Super Barrett!!! John Barrett truly is an inspriation for all the people out there who want to minister for Christ in a true and practical way. God bless you John and this is your bradda in Christ...Drew!!!!!
