Musik, Filme und Bücher

I like thrillers and movies that keep me interested throughout the duration of the movie. Lots to name but no point. Comedic movies are always appreciated as a good laugh goes a long way, and who doesn't love quoting movies all day long.

Music
In the past 3 years I have gotten very interested in the EDM scene and have been to many of the world's best dj's concerts and music festivals. Love getting together a large crew of my friends and heading to a show or festival and dancing/raging for a couple hours having a great ass time. I am also into hip/hop love some wiz, kid cudi, wale and old school kanye. def down to always learn/listen to new music whenever i can.
