alas, there were three.
let the world know
that music may be cheap therapy to some
but for me....
it's priceless.
check the innovators:
DJ Lily Tran (my role model sister). Thank you for the crate of records. The legacy will go on!
Randy and Ray Bernal (b-boys with a vengeance) Can't wait till you move up here, Ray!
John Jett (candidate for graphic fame) for being there when i needed to badmouth trashy people
Elon Khelif for your sick resources and knowledge of Luke Vibert
Todd Inoue for proving to me that good hip-hop is still out there. I love your music reviews.
Josh Davis....we shall meet again...is this real or am i still dreaming?
Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul, for my first hip hop show ever in the 7th grade
Mom for being a Vietnamese lounge singer and not yelling at me when i blasted music in my room
Ratha Nou and Nick Guilford for providing me with hours of entertainment in journalism
Matt Dhuyvetter for getting me hep to the technical side of music
Amanda Zangara..still can't believe you bought me that ticket to see the Beasties at Tibetan Freedom
Cimeron Ahluwahlia ms. no-nonsense, i sure did learn a lot from you
Dad for yur endless support of my goals and providing me with my computer to make music
Benjamin Wells III for rolling with me to LA to see bjork and your good advice at Rachel's pawtay
Mr. Shankly...thanks for the cool striped socks and my favorite souls of mischief song
Nathaniel Sebastian LeBlanc I owe you sooo much (not just talking about lucre, either). You are my fellow hip-hop junkie. How many other people from SJ know about Talib and Mos Def? You were there the day i found out about that trashy scandal, and because of your visit...I quickly recovered.
T H A N K Y O U A L L
i shall pursue my dream now.
