Late Morning Jazz Let it flow for Dr. J. #Jazzsky #jazz

The essence of a Tyler Perry character.

Tupac is timeless. The message, the music, the face card...elite in every lifetime.

Being rude to service people.

I jump on here late and see y'all have run someone off here before lunch. Damn!

Good Morning ! Choose yourself.

No amount of chemistry can ever make up for the anxiety that is guaranteed when you remain in a "situation" with someone who doesn't choose you. The only way out is to choose yourself.

Terry Lewis 🎂 The SOS Band's 'Just Be Good To Me' has one of the best song intros ever.

I still haven't figured out what the big deal is about Wicked, Ariana Grande or Cynthia Erivo. I'm truly stumped.

Terry Lewis 🎂 This song is older than most of the youngsters on Blacksky and it still slaps.

Always, cause if I don’t, who will??

'Game' is the biggest waste of time. 💀

The Prince era in music was one of the best. In the 1980s, it was nothing unusual to see Prince, Sheila E, and The Time on tour together, except for that one time when Hall and Oates toured with them. Talk about being blessed... Jellybean Johnson on drums. Cool. 1981 youtu.be/_Ibaf56aeew?...

Jellybean Johnson Minneapolis native. Multi-instrumentalist, writer, producer, and member of The Time. Rest in power 💐💐💐

Someone once told me “living well is the best revenge.” Nonsense. Living well is living well. Living well, while taking your revenge is the best revenge. Revenge is the best revenge. Never let anyone tell you different.

This is why knowing AND understanding world history is important. The Haitians beat Napoleon's ass and sent him back to France. Barbecue would've smoked them.
