about me
I've been bumping to the beats of music since I was in the belly of my mama. Though my parents weren't your average cool hippies, I was still exposed to great tunes. Artists like Paul Simon, U2, and Led Zeppelin will always remind me of childhood dayz. As I keep growing so does my love for different genres. There isn't one kind of music I could ever say is my favorite, different music for different moments. Maybe you're in the car, cruisin' on a great day, a little reggae, or on the late night, hella faded, on the dance floor, time for some good ass hip hop, or maybe you're going to sleep and you want some calm Ben Harper, or a little Erykah Badu...it's really all about my mood. All the sounds in the world, they all create MUSIC. Dancing to pure funk is living a pure life.
