Look at the Material

Hey, family. Idk...today was especially heavy on the hard news. With hurricanes afoot, police violence against Black people, and (oh yeah) a global pandemic still ravaging the U.S., I wanted to sit down and record my Thursday Thoughts for y'all. Maybe y'all feel equally as frustrated, confused, and tired as I am. Either way, I wanted to have a candid chat with the family and do a lil pulse check for the homies. I love y'all, stay safe out there!

Hello family! I hope you enjoyed your National Tequila Day, I know I did lol. Friday's episode was about "urban" categories at award shows like the Grammy's, the originators of music genres, and some genre-bending Black artists we should stream! After I saw a video of Tyler the Creator earlier this year about this topic, I decided this was a valuable conversation to have. I hope you guys enjoy this and tag your fav artists below!
