I have such a wide taste in music that I could not sometimes pinpoint one type of music that I favor over another. I do like anything that is funky with a taste of the rough, rugged and raw shit.
Some of my influences include:
Common
Redman
The Beastie Boys
Sleater-Kinney
The Smiths
Minor Threat
Dead Kennedys
Korn
Method Man
Jurassic Five
Jay-z
Just to name a few.
