Okay, I will preface this with the GIGANTIC disclaimer that I promise I know how this looks, and I *swear* this is not personally motivated: If you have an old #LiveJournal account, and it has things you still care about in it, download it or import it to Dreamwidth SOON. Details:

There wouldn't no pop music if it wasn't for Donna Summer.

Her legacy needs to be talked about more.

I need Kelly Rowland to play her in the biopic.

#PrinceHitstory: On this day in 1985 @cbsrecords released The Bangles’ #Prince song “Manic Monday”, @SusannaHoffs on lead vocals.

The single hit #2 on @billboard, stopped from going #1 by Prince's "Kiss"! #Prince4Ever

#PrinceHitstory: On this day in 2015 @PaisleyPark & #Prince released his 39th and LAST album "HiTnRuN Phase Two". The album peaked at #40 on @billboard.

Making "Big City" the last song @Prince ever released on an album. "That's it."

What's YOUR favorite track?? #Prince4Ever

the fuck is the estate DOING over there?!
#Prince fans, it pisses me off that the @Prince Estate is doing the one thing it's great at, and that's ruining what is great.

Per Lisa Coleman on the "How can U just leave me standing?" podcast:

“...we'd love to play, but the estate has some kind of legal thing about us playing the music...”

yeah, it's just an okay cover.
#PrinceHitstory: On this day in 1996 @emimusic.bsky.social & #Prince released “Betcha By Golly Wow!” In Europe. It reached the Top 20 in many markets, #31 on @billboard.com where it was released as a promo.

I think this one of the weaker Prince singles. What do U think? #Prince4Ever

Not news I wanted to wake up to... got a text about an hour ago from my "Purple Informer" about this

Loved Jellybean and he did a lot for the Minneapolis music scene to this day
What a terrible drag to wake up to the news that Jellybean Johnson, one of the all-around funkiest, coldest drummers, guitarists and songwriters of all Time—not just The Time —- is now an ancestor. Sleep well, brother—well done. #MusicSky #BlackSkyOver50

We are shocked and saddened to hear of Jellybean Johnson's sudden passing. To know that this amazing personality will no longer randomly show up (like here on @recordstoreday.bsky.social 2023) to light up the store and talk music and life and Minneapolis Sound Museum with us is heartbreaking.💔

So telling of our current era that the beginning of the article where they lay out the disinformation is crisp and easy to read but the paywall kicks in and starts to gray out the text right when the article starts talking about how experts say the disinfo is complete horseshit

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.
