fashion people style
Most of the people you look at in the early days of Harlem - the zoot suits, the music, the style of fashion, the vibrant colors - that's all influences from the south.
focus meditation
I don't have a routine, but I have used meditation to just decompress and focus.
never-say-never humbling
Never say "never" about anything, because if you do, life has a way of humbling you.
memories history-repeats-itself repeating-history
History repeats itself over and over again, but most of us have short memories.
home kids animal
I worked at a group home for a survival job years ago, and kids who have a rough home life have always tugged at my heart-strings. I also care a lot about animal cruelty.
yoga trying overwhelmed
I don't practice yoga, but it's on my list of things to try again. I gave it a shot, but the class was too advanced for me, and I felt overwhelmed and a little embarrassed.
social-media kind bubbles
I don't have social media so I'm kind of in a bubble, but I hear there's a lot going on.
southern soul church
You see a lot of Baptist churches in Harlem, you see a lot of the same kind of cuisine, the soul food - there's a lot of places that remind you of its southern roots.
catering definitely dollar essential films money possibly shirt suit sure tailor
The big budget films have money to do things that are not necessarily essential but sure are comforting. The catering is usually much better. And you have way more of anything you could possibly need. You definitely get a trailer. My shirt and suit for 'Million Dollar Baby' were tailor made.
people trying
I try to stay incognito as much as I can. I don't go places that people would expect to see me because I'm trying to lay low.
trying certain situation
As professionals, we just try to keep the jokes to a minimum, when we're in a certain situation. When we're not doing that, we're joking.
eye storm trying
I rarely feel like I'm in chaos, but when I am, I usually [retreat] and try to find the eye of the storm; if I'm still and listen and don't engage, maybe the chaos will subside.
people different pot
Harlem is really a melting pot for a lot of different people.
art real thinking
I think when people talk about art imitating life, you're in real time.
