Our hero, our genius, our greatest musical warrior. I am at a loss for words over the passing of Hermeto Pascoal. So happy to got to see him play, to meet him, talk with him. His music, his spirit - always brought me such inspiration and such joy. We love you Hermeto.

Joseito Rivera was a mentor to me and many others in the New York Puerto Rican music community. El Rincón Criollo Cultural Center needs to raise $4500 to help cover funeral expenses. Please donate if you can, and please share with others who may be able to contribute as well

Devastated by the news of the passing of Eddie Palmieri. My biggest musical hero, my reason for so much of what I do. Every concert I went to was pure joy and perfection. Every album, my favorite.

Thank you for always reminding me to Stand. And that Everybody is truly indeed a star. And I can make it, if I try. Don't you know that you are FREE? Well at least in your mind if you want to be. Rest in peace

Way back in 2002, my band played the AIDS Walk finale at the Central Park Bandshell. We were the opener and Buster Poindexter AKA David Johansen was the headliner. He was friendly and extremely complimentary to us, and I was flying on air. Not all heroes wear capes, some wear mascara & lipstick. RIP

Then in the year 2000... that same Lex Luthor ran for President. This story was brilliantly portrayed in the Justice League Unlimited animated series

When DC comics rebooted their characters in the late 80s, they made it very clear who the new Lex Luthor was based on, Donald Trump. This is the cover to a "biographical" issue they published with the cover blatantly mimicking Trump's Art of the Deal
