@samsanders.bsky.social I just finished your interview with Raphael Saadiq, and everyone needs to hear the story of how he and D’Angelo wrote “Untitled”! And his insights about Beyoncé and Solange were also amazing. I saw him in concert in the Netherlands nearly 20 years ago and he was so good!

While taping an interview with a reporter all about the rise of AI music, I learned that a very Internet-popular song I thought was *real* is… actually AI. You could’ve picked my jaw up off the floor. I have a degree in music composition—this shit is scary. I’ll share our full chat tomorrow
