Incredibly cruel 🤦🏾
A portrait of Bob Power in a studio leaning against a mixing board.
Salute to a man who was probably the single most important studio engineer of my most formative years and beyond. He shaped sound, sharpened samples and varnished vocals. Tribe, De La, The Roots, Badu, D’Angelo and too many more. A true wizard.
RIP Bob Power. 🕊️
"A man free of patriarchy is a man who has found not only every woman's humanity, but one who has at last discovered his own. The actual path to liberation for lonely men is feminism—because pursuing an identity based on dominating others is self-isolating."

This film was designed to flow without hard cuts -- the camera just goes and goes and goes

Idk who needs to hear this but apologizing for cheating in a very public, international setting is a form of manipulation
Rape culture has to be destroyed if we gon get anywhere. Can't be community if community ain't safe for everybody

I feel like the way to battle AI is to keep creating without it as much as you can. They’re baking it into everything but keeping the human element in the creation phase is critical.

Hey y’all. So. We are in an urgent and difficult situation. We have a storage locker for our belongings, but we can no longer keep up with the payments and have fallen behind. If we’re unable to cover the full $750 balance, everything in it will be lost in 2 days.

I just think that every human being should be making or reveling in art idk

Great album by the way:

With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.
Man...this guy played on SO many dates, lived and breathed jazz, was NEVER satisfied to be one of the all-time greats but always kept looking for the next step up & out & into the music...we will not see the likes of Jack DeJohnette again soon. Deep gratitude for a lifetime of dedication to the art
This is the D'Angelo performance that I've never forgotten. This song was already a huge hit but the way he took it from contemporary R&B to church revival illustrated how connected those idioms are. A revelation for those who didn't know, and an affirmation for those who did.
I'm genuinely hurt 💔
