The guy who created the "Munah munah" song - frickin genius!
I'm not here to paint the world with pretty colours, touch a life to make it change, and i do not believe in moments of truth. Give me a piece of paper and I’ll draw you a map of my life done in chubby wax crayons, all smudged and illegible, and that’s just how I like it.
Who I'd like to meet: I met a man once who told me "Mercedes, noisy girl, red wine is a great pussy opener", believe it or not that guy was trainin to be a monk!!! People amaze me.
...Anyway, I want my life to be obese with spontaneity, new faces, and things not seen around the corner. I bask in the random, soak in it until my fingers get all pruny!

it's been good having you as a friend. i wanted to let you know that my poem "A True Liberator" has been mixed and i wanted to invite you personally to listen to it. so here's the info:
it's like this, if you listen, Tone Def Jams & 10K Poets will blow your mind away. " A True Liberator" is mixed, old skool poerty vs. bad ass beats. come get a ear shot of this one. go as a friend. always come back as family.
