Oh boy this takes me back (grin)!

Well, when I was about 10 I was really, really, REALLY into Britney Spears haha! Loved her. Her Baby One More Time... album was actually my first cd in the fifth grade circa 1999. That was like the gateway to all things pop for me haha. Britney, Christina Aguilera, N'sync, and the Backstreet boys...TRL...ya know the tween scene twenty years ago. I loved it.

But then at some point I discovered rock music. It started simply enough by the time 2002 rolled around and I discovered Avril Lavigne. But then by time I got to high school a year later I was a full blown punk loving teen (anyone remember that Afropunk movie? yeah I was in love with that movie and scene...other afropunks like me existed!) with a little bit of Coldplay mixed in haha. My taste in music was actually really wide even though I never would have admitted I ever had that tween pop phase haha.

Then...it happened...I was introduced to my favorite band for YEARS...The Kills. I pretty much only listened to them for years. I really got into them, Andy Warhol, Velvet Underground, and that whole scene. I fashioned myself bringing that whole artist collective scene back.

Now, I listen to a lot of jazz and artists like Nujabes and Devin Morrison (getting back to my 90s R&B roots I think lol). My tastes are still really wide, but I'll always love anything 90s.
