Donny Hathaway: Live at the Bitter End 1971, previously unreleased performances (Rhino, 2013)

I can never get enough Donny. Especially this disc from the “Anthology” CD boxset, with unreleased cuts from the set featured on Side A of his legendary “Live” album.

If they can’t convince us that we need AI then those billions of dollars they spent on it will be for nothing.

Don’t use that shit. Let these companies lose that money. They should’ve used it to pay fair wages, instead of giving it to tech bro scammers for shitty, useless “innovation.”

Thelonius Monk 🎂

Genius, composer, and pianist.

I'll check them out.

I keep hearing good things about them.

Narcissists.

Jonathan Butler 🎂

Singer, songwriter, and guitarist born in apartheid South Africa. He was the first non-white artist to play on South African radio. Although he initially played r&b, he's a smooth jazz superstar.

I'm surrounded by solar panels and wind turbines out here in the desert. Shit ain't cut off yet.

The ignorance displayed here is not a flex.

As usual, you have me laughing in my coffee.

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.

Thank you.✊🏾

Good Morning! Explaining yourself doesn't make people understand you better; it just gives them a reason to doubt you.

I need to revisit it.

I remember this album cover from back in the day. I need to go back and listen.
