turn the radio up for that sweet sound. i specialize in three types of music. actually no, just two. i appreciate three, i specialize in two. i have middle of the road classic hip hop -- not mainstream but not underground either -- and car game. the catch all category of car game includes anything and eveything you can sing in your car. selections range from cheezy eighties ballads (make me lose control, lean on me), alternative standards (under the bridge), pm dawn and other sing-a-long r&b stuff and admittedly, some boy bands -- they're good okay? hack cough cough. that's it, that's all i got. i got the hip hop for listening to during the day and soft sappy karaoke stuff to listen to at night. you've been forewarned. ride with me at your own risk.



i'm also a very demanding car dj. first, i need music on at all times in a moving vehicle. second, i refuse to listen to your music unless i'm already inclined to like it. i bring my cd books into other people's cars and expect them to allow me to stage a musical coup. it's like bringing your own food when you've been invited over for dinner. oh well. it's rude but you gotta do it.



by the way. the key to successful car game is to have random ass songs that everyone secretly, or not so secretly, loves. car game should consist of songs that people know all the words to but somehow haven't heard in five years or more. bam. bust it and that's car game material. you know a true car game winner when everyone is singing along and no one is willing to open the window so that outside people can hear. the window must stay up, or you run the risk of getting caught singing along to sophie b hawkins as the four dudes with gangsta rap pull up at the light. not that that's ever happened to me or anything.
