First and foremost I LoVe music PeRioD. Hip hop is my first love, although we did break up from 1996-1998. My motto is if it sounds good, I like it. I definitely am more open minded now compared to when I was younger. I really hate when I ask people what kind of music they like and they, "Everything but country." Total B.S generic answer. I enjoy hip hop, rap, R&B, soul, jazz, funk, trip hop, rock, alternative, punk, house, drum n bass, reggae, disco, 80's, ska, trance, blues, down-tempo, salsa....get the picture?
