See: "Good Times" Theme Song...(shame on you if you don't remember this):Good times
Any time you meet a payment
Good times
Any time you need a friend
Good times
Any time you're out from underNot getting hassled
Not getting hustled
Keepin' your head above water
Making a wave when you canTemporary layoffs
Good times
Easy credit rip-offs
Good times
Scratchin' and surviving
Good times
Hangin' in a chow line
Good times
Ain't we lucky we got 'em
Good times...raising my beautiful daughter, spending time with friends and fam, seeking solace in my sanctuary in solitude, sleeping, gallivanting, listening to music, working out, eating/dining, occasionally getting inebriated.
I'd like to meet:
most people once, again if the vibe is right. ?uestlove, Bobbito, and Dave Chappelle.
Music:
First and foremost I'm a hip-hop head, but if a genre of music has been represented on a DJ Neil Armstrong mix, I'm into it. I love music, and I also love my friends and fam who have influenced my tastes and put me onto different genres, especially my stepfather Alan (Rock/80's Hair Band shit!) and Phil (The Cure, U2, UB40, Depeche Mode)! I'd have to say that Stevie Wonder and Bob Marley are definitely among the best. I'd alphabetically list the artists I have on my iPod, but that would be a very time-consuming task (maybe I'll do that later), so let's just say that my tastes vary from the musicians already mentioned above, to A Tribe Called Quest to OutKast, Little Brother to Slum Village (R.I.P. Jay Dee a.k.a. Jay Dilla), to EPMD and Eric. B and Rakim, to N.W.A. and Too $hort, to E-40 and Ras Kass, to Wu-Tang Clan and Biggie Smalls, Hieroglyphics, Billy Joel, some Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, The Eagles, Eric Clapton, The Police, Erykah Badu, The Roots, Common, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Bell Biv DeVoe and New Edition (New Jack Swing! Alexvanderpoolera! Hip-Hop, Smoothed Out On The RandB Tip With A Pop Feel To It!) haha! Nas, Jay-Z, Xzibit, X-Clan, White Stripes, U.M.C.'s, Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick, The Roots, Zapp and Roger, Parliament/Funkadelic, Rick James, bitch! Earth, Wind and Fire, The Gap Band, Prince, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Redman, Raphael Saadiq...geez, the list goes on and on
Movies:
Bad Santa, Friday, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, National Lampoon's Vacation, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Coming To America, Do The Right The Thing, Trading Places, Office Space, Pulp Fiction, Napoleon Dynamite, The Big Lebowski, Crash, Half Baked, Training Day, Garden State, The Ladies Man, Pootie Tang, Undercover Brother, Go, Freddy Got Fingered...
Television:
Of course, it goes without saying, the now defunct Chappelle's Show, and The Sopranos...For my old school fam, I know y'all feel me on this: Good Times, Sanford and Son, The Jeffersons, All In The Family, Happy Days, The Brady Bunch, What's Happening, The Cosby Show, Knight Rider, The Muppet Show, Gilligan's Island, Leave It To Beaver, The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air, The Cosby Show, In Living Color, Married With Children, Diff'rent Strokes...i think a reliable indicator of a good TV show is a catchy theme song, don't you agree?
Books:
Hmmm, I've read: The Autobiography Of Malcolm X, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, various Choose Your Own Adventure books...i'm such a well-read guy! At least I'm not illiterate. I've started (but haven't finished): The 48 Laws Of Power by Robert Greene and Can't Stop Won't Stop by Jeff Chang.
Heroes:
my parents and anyone who has overcome any type of adversity and/or obstacles to achieve a goal
