well, what I’m working on…
Looking at my ‘to do’ list… 1. Not as young as I used to be, so working on something that I hope will make things easier for the next generation of Muslim-Americans. I haven’t had it so bad really, but it seems like things are moving in the wrong direction, so…I’ll do what I can. […]
I didn’t really give myself any New Year’s resolutions, but this has been my most productive month in a couple years (at least). Nothing is done so to speak, but everything is in motion. Going all the way back to my childhood, I’ve always been a ‘big picture’ type, but the flaw in that mindset […]
Thanks to my friend ‘thecheesefry’ (twitter handle), I have a new time waster. Flickchart.com is a site that lets you create a personalized list of what your favorite movies are. And it’s embarassingly simple: you’re shown two posters and choose ‘which one is better?’ How do you side what’s better? Place in film history? Rewatchability? […]
Hey All, I’ve been honored to be asked to guest host Our Town Pasadena once again. My guest tonight will be rapper/producer BeatSmith, and we’ll be talking about hip hop then and now out West. It’s not an exaggeration to say two generations of the hip hop nation will be represented, but DJ Apocalypse […]
So I was having a conversation with ‘the manager’ last week, and she mentioned that when you come here, you get a sense of my comfort with words, but not enough of the other things I’ve done. As fate would have it, I looked around the site during the long weekend and realized I haven’t […]
On a superficial level, this has been one of the best years of my life. And a month or so from now, I’ll talk about that like I always do. Being truthful though, this year has been brutal. The exact cause of that is not something I’m really free to discuss; as far as this […]
Thanks to all who tuned into “Our Town Pasadena” last night. I haven’t watched the taping myself yet, but based on feedback it sounds like it went well. Based on who I’ve talked to, the show was watched from LA to Kansas to Romania. My next set of business cards will read “Malik Aziz, International […]
This should be fun. My friend, the lovely Marie Stein, is letting me sit in for her Wednesday night as the guest host of “Our Town Pasadena.” The theme for the show tomorrow will be “Passing the Torch”, and my guest will be Nathan Richardson. Nathan is an ambassador for the group Vittana, and works […]
Hey All, Haven’t posted in a little while, and probably won’t for a little longer. Just wanted to give a heads up I’m taking some personal time for myself at the moment. This year has gone very well; thanks to all who have read. Fingers crossed we’ll wrap up 2010 on a high note. Until […]
I made reference to this a little while ago and now can officially announce it: I received an invitation to be part of a Q&A for my film this upcoming weekend, and here are the details. It’s known as the Reel Black Men Film Festival and its run by my friends at the Black […]
