Since I can remember, music has always been there for me to help get through hard times, to escape reality, and just simply as a source of enjoyment. Oftentimes it feels almost like magic or some sort of wizardry with its ability to completely transport to a different time, place, or emotion. Now more than ever I've found myself relying on music to distract from the background noise. Growing up on a steady diet of Wu-Tang, Mobb Deep and Dilla, playing drums in a blues band, DJing bass music, and collecting second hand soul, funk and reggae vinyls, gives me loads to draw on when answering; "What type of music do you listen to?”. There's not much rhyme or reason to this collection of songs; just a snapshot of songs that keep me going.
