👁️ No Cat Glover and Prince are dancing with the angels, as Boni Boyer sings heavenly sounds! Rest in peace, music, and movement, Cat Glover! You were loved!🖤

@Baron3121 @MDean I only have Prince friends and Ricky was my oldest Prince friend. We went to high school together. We talked about Prince from day one, and we didn't really talk about anything else. Thank U 4 acknowledging my dearest friend Ricky (@footprintsgroov), @Baron3121! I miss him!

The children Mattie Shaw and John L. Nelson shared together have both passed on☹️. A family started on a dream of music have all gone on to glory🕊️ #riptyka #ripprince

Tyka Nelson, Rest In Peace!💜

I pray that they will acknowledge her and I pray that they turn off the comment sections when they do. That is his blood little sister. Nobody knows their story but them. #Prince #TykaNelson

From Paid in Full: The Battle for Black Music. Highly recommend this 3-part doc. #Prince was part of a legacy of many who came before him working for the same cause in the rights of artists, and specifically Black artists. Was really cool to see in the context of that history.

@darlingnisi @threadreaderapp Thanks @darlingnisi! I hadn't heard about it until your posts.🙏💜

Thrilled to have stumbled across a copy of this in a St. Lukes yesterday for £4.50!!

Only the second copy I've ever seen in the wild round here over the years.

They had a run of the mill McCartney album priced up at £19, so I'm not entirely sure they knew what they had here.
