Always givin perpetual props to ancestors. A Jamaican New Yorker in Oakland. a Virgo-Leo cusp baby. A decidedly gender-queer polyamorous straight guy who doesnt prefer the term metrosexual. I suck at cool handshakes & handslaps. Tryin to finish this Masters in Expressive Arts Therapy (year and a half to go!). An activist using creative vehicles to effect change. A dj and producer (who just had a phenomenal and intense European tour with Meshell Ndegeocello! wheee!! see: http://www.transdubmassiv.com ...feelin blessed indeed). loving so many more styles of music than listed above, like Bad Brains, Jimi Hendrix, Alice Coltrane, Stevie, Tanya Stephens, Detroit Techno, Skinny Puppy, arovane, Dub Taylor, Prefuse 73...
