Roll Call: Tom P
June 11th, 2009 by Rodney Carmichael in Music news
Who are you?
Tom P: rap artist, ATLien, manager, promoter, event planner, booker and coordinator, producer, table waiter, show rockin’ hip-hop extraordinaire.
Describe yourself in three words.
Only three words???!
Who — dead or alive — would you most like to meet?
Dead: John Lennon. Alive: Scarface from the Geto Boys. If I could hang with the two of them at the same time that would be something.
Who would you most like to slap in the face?
Anne Coulter
What song do you wish you had written?
All of Andre 3000’s verses
Elvis Costello or Elvis Presley?
Fat Elvis
LP, CD or MP3?
CDs. I still buy them. I own about 2,000 of them. I am the one dude still carrying around a Sony Walkman and a giant case of albums. Everybody has an 80 gig iPod, I’ve got 80 pounds of CDs jammed in those little booklet sleeves. I almost wreck my car daily flipping through them while trying to drive. I just enjoy listening to full albums and knowing I supported the artist.
If you could start one trend, what would it be?
People taking the time to learn how to rap before they call themselves rappers. No one wants to see a band who can’t play well. Treat rap like any other instrument. It takes a lot of practice to be good at it.
If you could end one trend, what would it be?
Inviting me to millions of Facebook and MySpace pages and applications. Y’all are trying to make me a “fan” of happiness and teeth whitening at this point.
With whom would you most like to play a game of spin the bottle?
Megan Fox, Alicia Keys, Rihanna, that Slumdog Millionaire chick, and my girl. Although, I imagine she wouldn’t be too pleased with the situation.

Tom! How’re things? Haven’t seen you since the Alpha Gam pledge formal in ‘98! All’s good here.
Remember when you got drunk and danced on stage at the black fraternity, and you thought they wanted to beat you up? But they were just fucking with you?
That was awesome!

Yo, Tom P checking in.
I just noticed this comment above.
Just to clear things up, I was 12 years old in 1998.
Wrong guy, but hope all is well.
Big things to come…
