Kameron {Tha Best in the World}

About Me

Todayâ€™s Jewel: "If you want to be truly successful invest in yourself to get the knowledge you need to find your unique factor. When you find it and focus on it and persevere your success will blossom."
-By Sidney Madwed
I'm Kameron. 23 years old. Musician by birth. Saxophonist by choice. Sinfonian by the grace of God. I'm a naturally cool ass dude, so holla at me if u wanna know about how it do what it do haha.
I love music, it's my PLEASURE! I'm infatuated with my horn, love jazz and a variety of music. movies. books. coffee. live music. women. sports bars. hookah bars. reinvention of self. new people. new places. these are a few of my favorite things.
I have a problem going to bed at a decent hour, ever. My sleep habits are horrific. But I do sleep, just never at the right time. I have a tendency to laugh alot, but only because I try to stay positive. There's no need to be walkin' around feelin' sad or pissy. Smile, dammit. It can't be that bad. Are you homeless? Do you not eat? Can you read? Okay then. Lastly, I hope to make a lasting impression on the world. Not saying I need to be world famous, but just that I affect the people around me in such a way that a trickle-down effect will take place and I'll rub off on some people. Everyone needs some joy in their life. Here, have some ;) holla at ya boy, its tha killa. ya favorite musician's favorite musician.
