"The only ones for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous Roman Candles exploding like spiders across the skies and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes awwwww!..." ~ Kerouac
LIVE music! Any artist that has a dope live show is a-okay with me, but my faves are...The Legendary Roots Crew, Robert Nesta Marley, DMB, Prince, Common, Black Star, RHCP, Little Brother, Smokey Robinson, Nina Simone, The Beatles, E Badu, Lauryn, 90s alternative/grunge, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Kanye, Hendrix, the Bee Gees, Earth Wind and Fire, Marvin Gaye...and MANY MANY more.
