About Me

Shout out to LMF for the layout! Basically, I'm just your normal grad student who actually has free time (for the moment) to blog, debate, and write articles related to my interest (which are music, psychology, and law amongst other things). If you are a music act: Please send me your best music to review and you may be a blog feature. Do not send me you worst. Other than that, enjoy all the page has to offer and ask me any questions either in the comment box or in the message box.[LOVEMYFLASH]

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Individuals who can hold a decent conversation, know about current issues, can discuss music, basically people who actually have substance and are not all style. Most importantly, people who do not have excessive amounts of drama and suffer from the disease! As far as celebs, Jay-Z, Nas, Lupe, Oprah (to debate with her in public), Illseed, Obama, Will Smith (I have to see if he really is a scientologist), Cornel West, Michael Eric Dyson (another individual I would love to have a debate with), Denzel Washington, Sanaa Lathan, Keri Washington, Alicia Keys, Bria Myles, Common Sense, Juice (the legendary Chicago emcee, not that dude from the West Coast), Twista, Rhymefest, and many others.
