My music choice is anything, I don't seperate myself to listen to only one genre, like the fact that because I'm African American I have to listen to Rap & R&B which i personally think is bull. I listen to everything but i guess if you can say my sort of favorite is alternative because i feel i can relate to most of the lyrics more but i also have the same affect with it R&B music. I mostly listen to these because 9/10 times i don't have to hear about banging a girl in the club or getting some head or any other stupid dances like chicken noodle soup or Halle Berry!(no offense to anyone that likes the Halle Berry dance but i've never seen that woman do that dance or movement in my life!) like rap does. Don't get me wrong i still listen to it but most of the time that's all it really ever is about, sex and drugs mostly. I like alternative because it's a different sound to me, it makes you happy or sad or just well in my opinion at ease with the world. I also like to listen to other artist like Jeffree Star because he's unique. I love unique music, i listen to it everywhere especially in room. My ipod is my child and without it I have no music to escape from life. Alternative is just music that's deep in my opinion and if i were to sing music that would be the genre i choose. i don't ever seperate music by race, music is music and we should all appreciate it because of that. My favorite band is actually Paramore becuase their music calms me down when i'm stressed and i love them for that! Even though I listen to that mostly i still love 90's music since i'm a 90's baby like Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls,Mary J. Blige. I have no certain i just like, i'm diverse with my music and i think other should be like right now i'm listening to their song "Emergency" which is about a boy that left his girlfriend, it's not hard to relate to at all being the fact i recently had an difficult situation like that with a friend. i guess this is all my head can pop out for now so enjoy my blog..

What's My Music Choice?

Man in the Mirror (Human Nature)
Ok, where to start? I'm a Michael Jackson fan, I've been one since my dad used to to make me dance while i was 2 years old to thriller and watching his concert specials on HBO. It was one of my best childhood memories especially my dad promising me he would take me to a concert when i got older, but well....? He died when I was 5 so i guess that never happened but today I did watch TV. I flipped through and saw "Man in the Mirror"(it's the only MJ movie I've never seen) so i watched it and i understood and while watching I research everything about him especially his molestation charges and i understood some more especially from the movie.
I learned from Tv, the media lies so that they can make themselves look good and their victim look bad. We never get to know the victims side of the story but instead rumours that destroy marriages and families. I'd probably love Brittany Spears if she hadn't shaved her head and ram a car with an umbrella(which will still be one of my craziest teenage memories), but when i saw her as a person talking, I knew she was the victim, not the enemy. Lies hurt people and destroy, the Media is truly the evil one in the making. But we encourage it every time we buy a tabloid magazine or look up their scandals, or watch it on shows like ET or The Wendy Williams show (still don't know who that woman is and why and how she got her own show). We never care about what good a public figure or celebrity does, all we care mostly is their faults and then we judge, we're basically ignorant.
No matter what people say Michael Jackson was a gift to the world, he wasn't a molester, he wasn't dishonest, he wasn't even "Wacko Jacko" he was just a person who wanted to make a change for the better in the world. He gave and gave and gave and gave but still it wasn't enough. It just shows how selfish, cruel, and evil people can be in the world. I also learned from the movie even though the term is obvious but "Money is the root of all evil" I mean why is money around? It just destroys lives and makes things complicated, I mean sometimes I wish money were things like rocks and shells, do what the cavemen did (not trying to say we're all cavemen). Ok I'm getting off topic but Michael loved children and he was so obsessed with them because he never knew what it felt like to be a kid, it was taken away from a B@#$d of a father. Yeah I own nearly everything the man recorded but it all has a meaning into it. He was an icon, my role model, he helped so much people and it just shows that some people look to the brighter sides of things even though they're attacked everyday kinda like Jesus (not that I'm comparing him to my lord and savior).
They say you don't know what you got until it's gone and I feel I'm learning that stuff everyday, so when i looked at YouTube pages and people say stuff like "MJ was a pedophile" or "MJ deserves to die", it breaks my heart just how bad some people can be ignorant and judgemental. I mean we buried the GREATEST ENTERTAINER IN THE WORLD! on Thursday and his music will be around forever. I feel we all have a little MJ in us, when we help others (heal the word), find that special someone (you are not alone), want that annoying person out of your face (scream/leave me alone), or just wanna have fun on Halloween (thriller), the movie reminded he was special and all these thoughts came flooding back, he was special and will always be remembered.
“If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.”~ Michael Jackson <3
