Music:

Will Downing is my favorite male artist. Sade is my favorite female artist. Earth, Wind, & Fire is my favorite group of all time. Boney James and David Sandborn are two of my favorite jazz artist, but I love all jazz. George Benson and Al Jarreau are two of the premier jazz artist of my time. Erykah Badu and Lalah Hathaway do it to me. Monica Dillon is one bad New Orleans talent. Curtis Mayfield and Stevie Wonder are the Greatest! Norman Brown is the badest Guitarist I've seen to date, No disrespect to George Benson, he is in a league of his own. He sings and plays. I love and appreciate all music, but I'm a hopeless romantic. I love jazz music above all else...Monet is the Bomb! Rod Temperton and Heatwave was an awesome band. The talented Temptations are timeless.

Movies:

Any movie with an excellent plot and artistry. The Human Stain, Devil In a Blue Dress, Superman, 3:10 to YUMA, The Great Debaters, Malcolm X, Imitation of Life, The Bucket List, Roots, The Pledge, IdleWild, Cotton Club, God Father I & II, The Hunting Party, and X-Men...Dream Girls was one of the best movies of all times. Norbit was funny! I don't care...it was funny!

Television:

CSI, Boonedocks, Miami Vice, NY Undercover, Perry Mason, Andy Griffith, Bonanza, NFL Football, Justice League, Batman, Without a Trace, & The Unit.
