SINGING, Reading, Making Music, Writing, and always looking for ways to improve myself as an artist and a human-being.
I would like to meet those serious about the industry. This means, you can't just be looking for the million-dollar paycheck. 1) You have to LOVE making music. If you don't truly love making music, you likely aren't making good music. 2) You have to do your own homework. I know it's a bad word, but it WILL save your butt in this industry. With the Internet, the music industry is changing too rapidly. YOU HAVE GOT TO KNOW THE SCORE -or- you're out of the game. 3) I want to meet people who can not only take genuine encouragement, but who can give it just as easily. Any worthwhile relationship involves GIVE & TAKE.
Must I... ok ALMOST anything as long as it is not nasty or too street. Also, I can't really say that I'm a fan of punk or New Age.BUT I DO LIKE: Gospel, R&B, Pop, some Rap/Hip-Hop, Country, Classical, Reggae, some international, and various other forms, styles and genres of music.AS AN ARTIST my personal focus is on Pop, Urban, Gospel, R&B.
Brown Sugar, Love & Basketball, Zoolander, You've Got Mail and too many to list.
Suze Orman; any CSI; NCIS; some police detective (dramas); biographies of celebrities and other interesting characters; some history shows - BUT I try not to watch too much tv otherwise. It can easily be a time waster and keeps me from completing my dreams.
