grief is just proof that we are capable of love and evidence that we were loved in return. it's a blessing even if it feels like a curse. i keep telling myself that over and over and over again, but whew!!

Is "Take You Out" kinda just a sped up version of Mary J. Blige's "Share My World"? 🤔

Congratulations to #RonTrent on his Grammy nomination for Soul II Soul's "A Dream's A Dream (Ron Trent Refix)." This was a favorite minor hit when it was first released in 1990. Whatever made the group give it new attention, it's getting it from THE RECORDING ACADEMY! Good luck, Ron! 🏆

It’s an in-joke that when Black women get bored, we go get a degree & pivot. It’s a whole lotta Black women unemployed right now, watching Rep Jasmine & Kamala & now the Detroit mayor etc, and I don’t think *those people* understood what they’ve activated by forcing us to have time via layoffs

💀 See this is why you can't defend your fave artists these days by rattling off their sales/streaming numbers.
A new class action lawsuit against Spotify alleges the company has “turned a blind eye” to “mass-scale fraudulent streaming” on its platform and that one musician in particular has been the beneficiary of “billions” of fake streams: Drake.
Lawsuit Against Spotify Claims 'Billions' of Drake Streams Were 'Fraudulent'

It's really not hard to get off spotify, there are a lot of apps and websites to help you transfer your playlist. We're just so used to it that it seems easier to stay than go. But when you're spins are funding death, it's a small thing you can do to make a difference
Reports of ICE ads on #Spotify were noted in early October. People began calling for boycotts immediately.
Now, nearly a month later Spotify is seeing major losses.
And we can do ever BETTER. 👏👏👏
