I just heard this by @naj_ahead and it’s one of the best EP’s I’ve heard that’s all beats. I have suggested him before, but listen & you decide.
Track 1 needs Phonte on it. All of these are constantly entertaining. I bookmark stuff, glad I got to this🌊

Wish I could explain this in detail to people.

When you literally cannot rely on anyone but yourself it just makes you move a certain way.

One false move and it's up is incredibly stressful.

Me and my homies make mistakes and we homeless. ONE mistake. ONE miscalculation. ONE bad decision and you’re a felon. But you’re given no help. You right back to the very conditions that sent you away.

[Philosopher-King Miron 👑 @eihtbeezy]

Bro the stakes is so high for a young black man. You get ONE shot. Then that’s it. Everyone else has support and resources to draw on…

Album of the day. In prepping for the premiere of the Questlove-directed Earth, Wind & Fire documentary, I've been heavily revisiting the band's vast catalog and came across one of the more under-mentioned titles among Earth, Wind & Fire's great albums. Transitional albums typically get lost in the shuffle, and Open Our Eyes is a great example of one. Following one of their best, yet underrated albums, Head to the Sky, Open Our Eyes had founder Maurice White and company refining their all-encompassing sound, drawing on a worldly mélange of Black music styles and influences from African music to bossa nova pop. It's very much a bridge between the band's early free jazz leanings and the more polished, arena-sized sound that would bring them superstardom with 1975's That's the Way of the World onward.

This excellent album also has the distinction of being their first with input from master arranger and producer Charles Stepney (he's only credited as an associate producer here). Maurice White's association with Stepney dated back to their budding days on Chicago's Chess label, cutting sides for Ramsey Lewis and Minnie Riperton. On several cuts throughout Open Our Eyes, he employed his serpentine arrangements into their sound, giving it an accessible edge without stripping the musicality. Although it may lack the band's big hits, Open Our Eyes was a visionary leap forward that set the pace for what was to come.

So many people's "Rock" attempts sound dated and unadventurous.

[Loneliii @LonelEyeEyeEye]

I guess I'm not too late still 🙏

[Loneliii @LonelEyeEyeEye]

I'm not impressed but I'm glad everyone else likes it.

Saddened to hear of Kanya’s passing. It was an honor to be in her presence this year at the @MOBOAwards which she founded. She was a pioneering British woman who fearlessly built a platform for our community, giving a voice and recognition to artists who deserved to be seen and celebrated. Rest in peace and power. 🕊️

[PoliticsBabe🇵🇸 @Bellhookschild]

I was having this conversation with a colleague and I do think structural racism and stress is a contributing factor

Massive output uptick due to agentic AI. Complete flat adoption.

[UK Black Business Show @UKBBSHOW]

We are devastated to hear the news of the passing of the legend and our dear friend, @kanyaking 💔 She was an incredible woman who selflessly paved the way for thousands of people.

Thank you for everything , Kanya. You will never be forgotten. Rest in perfect peace. 🕊️🖤

And not like the "Damn that's a good throwback" kind of dated either.
