I'll never understand How anyone can fit all of their musical interests into a little box like this.It's nervewracking!However, if I try to just put a list of a bunch of stuff I've been listening to lately(Ghostface, Cat Power, Donny Hathaway, Amy Winehouse,The Smiths, Alice Smith,The Pharcyde, Marcia Griffiths,Liz Phair,Sonic Youth, Bad Brains, Roberta Flack, Blackstar,Black Sabbath,A tribe called Quest, Sufjan stevens John Coltrane, Nina Simone,Micheal frante,the supremes,De la Soul,J Dilla, Diplo, Wu tang, Dennis Brown, Rufus Wainright, Dead Prez)I sound like a pretentious weirdo.
I watch A LOT of movies.My two favorite movies are probably Rockers and Rushmore. They both start with the same letter....that's about all they have in common. Other than being dope. Do the right Thing and Chasing Amy and The Battle of Algiers and Veritgo and Adaptation and Grindhouse and Me you and Everyone we know and Kill Bill and Ghostdog aren't bad either(and by "not bad" I mean genius) Also: EVERYONE WATCH AFROPUNK!
I watch the Food Network. That's pretty much it. The Daily show if I'm in the mood. Oh-and 'What not to Wear' is a not so guilty pleasure. On another note: Can somebody please explain to me why BET can't find ANY other programming made for/by black people other than 'Beef' and 'American Gangster'? They play that shit ALL THE TIME. Not that I don't find it at all entertaining. Of course I do. It's just that I KNOW first hand that there are millions af talented black men and women making thought provoking, intelligent, funny , sexy art(a lot of them can be found on myspace!)....I'm sure they could come up with something better than programming dedicated to black people killing each other and/or commiting crimes. I've climbed down off the soap box now.Thank you for asking.
I've probably spent more hours reading than doing anything else in my life. I'm a huge nerd really. My favorite book is the Bluest Eye.My boyfriend has been reading me 'the little Prince' every night while I fall asleep. It's the best book I have read in a while. I forgot how amazing it is. Filling out lists of favorite things is intimidating. I encourage everyone to read as much as possible.
I'm trying to be my own hero lately. Some guy named Gandhi once said " You must be the change you want to see in the world." Whoever this Gandhi person is must have been pretty smart.Don't write me and tell me who Gandhi is. Please.
