Influences:
I can listen to everything from Hip Hop, Pop, R&B, Oldies, 80's, 90's, Jazz, Rock, and Disco. I enjoy an artist in concert when they can actually sing live. Prince ( Always Dream of working with you one day), Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland are my all time favorites.
When I was a teen I bought my own 4-track, keyboards, drum machine (Alesis HR16) for me and my brother (Noize Intelligence). We were doing all this pre-production stuff without even knowing some of this music was the making of our first album, "It's Time."
I grew up with an obnoxious loving family. I could relate to the Jacksons & The Wayans Families. I come from a family of eight - four boys, four girls. We are a very loud family!!! (Lol). I'm number 7. When growing up, music was always around the house - 24/7. My mother would get so upset with me when I would sing at the dinner table with food in my mouth. I just couldn't help it. I had this tape recorder I would carry around with me everywhere... & I would record anything & everything! (Lol).
Back in the day, we had barbeques in the backyard every Sunday with my brothers & sisters.

I'll come by the Hustler store to pick up some great sexy movies & popcorn. Can't get enough of comedy, Chris Tucker, Adam Sandler, Robert DeNiro, Steve Martin, Jim Carey, The Wayan Brothers, Cheech & Chong, Pee Wee Herman, David Chappelle... they are all so funny to me! My favorite movies are Rush Hour 1 & 2, Fridays, The Wedding Singer, Meet The Parents 1 & 2, Last American Virgin, Down & Out in Beverly Hills. Sometimes I get in a mood to watch a good old black & white classic flick.
We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers. They see things in the soft haze of a spring day or in the red fire of a long winter's evening. Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nurse them through bad days till they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.
Often people attempt to live their lives backwards: they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then, do what you need to do, in order to have what you want. ~ Margaret Young
