I specialize in Jazz Fusion and Hip-Hop/Soul. Jewlry making, and all medias of art. I also love to study Astrology and give readings. I love to party! Having as much fun as I possibly can before I croke. Buisness in the frontline though!!!!
Music
"All record companies perfer third-rate talents to true genius because they can push them around more easily, make them change their clothes or politics just to sell more records" The words of the late great Nina Simone
I love music, I love Hip-hop, I listen lyricist who actually have something to say. I listen to good writing PERIOD!!!
A lot of songs they play on the radio get on my nerves but I do listen to keep up with what's out there. If your an aspiring artist you should listen too! It gives you an Idea of where the youth is at and how to keep up in the game.
Let me hear some good lyrics and catchy melody and you got me!!!! I love classic/old school R&B and Hip-hop.
I also like alternatve music and some rock and pretty much anything from the 80's. The 80's is when I started to pay attention. But I am an 80's baby!!!!
