Sooo...How's that working for ya?

About Me

I am exceptional without exaggeration...
..

My Interests

There's nothing "general" about me.

I'd like to meet:

People that read more than MySpace pages. .. People who will NOT message me with attempts to meet offline or for dating, because they just read ^ this ^ sentence. Now that I've cleared that up...Cool people who find value in people, not things. People who have the good sense to send me a message before attempting to add me to their "Friends List." (Believe it or not, I'm not all that interested in letting you use my *dazzling* visage to boost your ego or friend count. Get it together!)View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

Music:

I'm a Prince lover from the heart!!Anyone who does not show deference to His Royal Funkiness need not waste my time. Also got mad love for my hometown reppers: Goapeleand Raphael Saadiqof course there are others, (you will occasionally catch me slumping some old school Bay rap) but there are of course, too many to name. I also love:Brian McKnightMAXWELLSade, Jill Scott, 112, Faith Evans, Anthony Hamilton, Van Hunt is a great addition to my rotation. This a difficult category for me, since I like so many different "genres" of music. I'm a huge fan of Maroon 5, Train, Stevie Wonder, Joss StoneAnita BakerMarvin Gaye ,Teena Marie and Angela Bofill. (Note: If you know who she is, you need to be my friend!) I personally feel that there is no real classification for musical expression; but I need some way to organize my RealPlayer library.

Carmen Jones, The Color Purple, Imitation of Life, most African American cinema. I have an affinity for Spike Lee movies, and independent film.
