Just be yourself!

Sure!

My eyes are Christopher Tracy.
My teeth are Aladdin Sane.
My mouth is Medusa.
My hair is Medúlla.
My voice is Swordfishtrombone.

When winter comes I'm usually walking on thin ice and on every second Monday I dress like Peter Gabriel wearing Tori Amos's Kate-Bush-outfit.

I've found out over the years that most white hiphop artists in Europe dress up rather like bohemian hippies, with somewhat baggier pants.

Since I listen to funk that is hardcore heavy metal (as opposed to disco club fare) I end up discussing music with young white 20-somethings or old burnout 40 Deadheads. Ironically, I can tell the 20-somethings more about the white rock they know and the over-40s are real curious about funk and black rock.

Unfortunately, there just aren't that many black people that I can talk with where hip-hop does not dominate the conversation.

nope. People automatically think im into hip hop or reggaeton etc...
Thats why i liike to blast country rock, or some joni mitchel in my car and watch the faces just look at me lol

I don't think so - I'm not big on reggae (locs) or rap/current R&B (Black) or sappy chick music (female)... then again, maybe that adds up to a bit of most everything which is what I like I think Ehh, they'd probably chalk me up as "neo soul" & I do like a lot of that

Well, if you're black, folks(of all colors) assume you're into R&B, funk & rap. I'm into that stuff, but I also like hard rock(early to mid 90s - Soundgarden, Nirvana, AIC, Sevendust, Metallica). That always surprises people.

EmbattledWarrior said:

thats sooooo not cool.... actually when i see guys blast corney music in their cars.... i just think they are geeks..... I just don't like it seeing guys play corney music...

TotalAlisa said:

corney?
is that like the french version of corny?

EmbattledWarrior said:

sorry well corny or corney isn't really a word.... i really meant geeky...

i would say Gay.. but that might offend people....

like my family has their own lil slang.... when i was little i would call nerdy/geeky things "nan na" but now i call geeky/nerdy things Gay...

like if I see something that is embarrassing or nerdy i will say... "thats Gay".. lolololololol...


trust me... even if you were very cute... i would not look at you.. and many other girls would not look at you because you look "Gay" listening to country rock... I don't know why but girls want to be with a guy who is some what cool.... I don't like bad boys... i like gentlemen.. clean cut boys.. no drinkers, no smokers, and do NOT use profanity in my presence.... but if he is really geeky I can't be with him... he has to be a lil cool...

People think that I only listen chillout, dance-club and all that stuff by my appearence....

TotalAlisa said:

Lucky 4 u im not cute, nor sexy,
still u got an infatuation with me
its cool, alot a girls got a thing for mee on the org, and don't even have my pic
oh btw, u gotta stop following me baby,
i don't respond to stalking

EmbattledWarrior said:

um Im not following you... if you happen to noticed i post mainly in the music non-prince section... and im on MJ and JJ threads... so i guess we happen to like the same things....

and please mister don't flatter yourself... i don't stalk anyone on the org... as a matter of fact... i have people on here who will remember some of my post from 2004.. and i don't even know them...

Hey if you want to get girls... don't blast that music... its okay to like that music.. because i like some nerdy music too... but I would NEVER blast it for anyone to hear

TotalAlisa said:

I don't want any girls thnx
i have enough i gotz to deal with after a gig
thnx for the advice though

EmbattledWarrior said:

yeah... and IM michael Jackson

TotalAlisa said:

that would explain alot then...

EmbattledWarrior said:

yes it explains that... anyone on this org can say anything they want... and it doesnt mean its true

TotalAlisa said:

doesn't mean its not either

EmbattledWarrior said:

yes true.... but anyone at any given moment could be making up things... such as having groupies...

I on the other hand.... do NOT care what people think of me at this org.... I tell the truth... I don't care if i sound "gay" I don't care if i seem peculiar... because i am....

but some guys on here like to seem like they have actually have groupies... I mean if i was a worldy man and had groupies... i wouldn't be on here... i be with my many groupies

But back to the subject,
I fall into the problem all the time. Because im young and dark skin,
and because im a musician, people think im some type of idiot savånt. That i don't know shit, people never expect that i've read stuff like Proust, keruoac, joyce, shit even hemmingway.
Im constantly stereotyped,
you can't be a smart dark musician,
or be part black and hispanic and play guitar
Just because your a biracial youth, your suppose to wear baggy jeans, listen to hip hop.
I remember when i was younger and started playing guitar, i got alot of shit because i wasn't into basketball like the others cats from my block
Guitar is for white kids,
And i speak correctly, omg you don't know what i go through because of that.
its been like that all my life, i should be used to it
but it still gets me
