About me: Finished my MA in Art history...almost (writing thesis), finisihed my MLS in Art Librarianship and Visual Resources, kind of working on my MFA in photo.
Just got a job at the Indianapolis Museum of Art...fun so far
I LOVE baseball (St. Louis Cardinals), and IU basketball. I do not miss games. It is not uncommon to find me with a current year version of the baseball rulebook in my bag or pocket.
People tell me I think too much, and I always take it as a compliment.
I am an artist/art historian/art librarian/art critic.
I love "real" hip-hop
I love "good" comedy and if you are sneaky you may find me performing at an open-mic
I love being busy and I love being lazy.
Who I'd like to meet: First off, the stupid crap.... I want to meet anyone that is freakin hilarious....and I want to meet anyone who loves to talk/or not...More though, you have got to love art...in whatever form that is...and you must love to express that love in anyway......
MOST Importantly though...I want to meet anyone that wants to open their eyes...I want to meet everyone that loves to keep them closed....and I would love to meet anyone that can do both! I don't want to meet Ms. Perfect and I am not Mr. Right..I am just looking for a good conversation... I will let everything else take care of itself
Dude what is going on with the status? Your stuff ain't ever happy. Shore it up. More Michael and less Fredo over there. If you need a game of pool holla at me.
hey thx man! To answer your question about other lyricists involved in this series, Mr Lif is up next, and Pigeon John after that... I'd tell you more, but i don't want to spoil it. Man, you're right, me and Lateef should make an album together! We've just both been a little busy...
