For real.
I know it’s hard for someone to make a move without some sort of insurance of satisfaction. I mean let’s face it did Million Dollar Baby sit there on the shelf alone & you gravitated to it? Or did you (like me) see all your peeps riding the wave having fun on their socials & you get fomo?
No shame in that.
But sometimes you just gotta support religiously people that deserve the Royal Treatment. We live in a world in which an artist like Bilal possesses a talent so majestic it’s almost seen as a hindrance or a stain that will keep him from getting his just desserts because he is so advanced math it’s almost UNcommon.
It don’t have to be that way: Bilal & @robertglasper & @boombishop & @common & I came to @glasshaus & jammed in the living room w 100 of our peeps & made a fine piece of art.
Is this hip hop’s #MoneyJungle? a quiet summit meeting that will make “best of” lists some 20 years down the line?
