About Me

songwriter. def not a singer but if i was i'd shut it down!! freelance writer. playwright. founder/creative director less talk,more walk productions and the generalstoreinc. wifey. mama. bag hag. country bumpkin. the only black gurl. former 4Hr. brownie. band nerd. dj. protester. observer. like any of my writing, music is another way i can communicate and further evaluate. i don't like music that is too high brow. i also don't like music that insults peoples' intelligence. i'm not trying to analyze or save the world when i dance. escapism is needed. i believe there is such thing as thoughtprovoking music that you can dance to. it exists. is that my music? sometimes and sometimes not. nuff said. i'm also a songwriter who has songs and writes songs in the genres of rock, electronica, dance, soul, r/b and some stuff that doesn't have a genre. I'm taking meetings. Created with mySpace Profile Editor Created with mySpace Profile Editor
