five years ago today, i wrote something from a hotel room in paris https://web.archive.org/web/20160424081724/http://www.playboy.com/articles/why-there-will-never-be-another-prince
this is something i wrote about prince last year, a look at the unreal syracuse concert the estate posted on youtube. https://theundefeated.com/features/prince-in-his-time-needs-to-be-seen-now/
and something i wrote about sign o the times — gasp — 19 years ago. https://www.salon.com/2002/03/11/sign_o_times/
it’s quite possible, actually. when and where you wrote goes into the piece, whether you realize it or not.

context is interesting. i think that syracuse piece might be the best thing i’ve ever written about music. never really moved, tho. and now ppl can’t get the video of the concert. but, the audio is streaming. and it’s pretty damn incredible, too.
kinda make an exception when prince dies, my man. mayb that's just me. https://twitter.com/clauderivest/status/1384974341696274432
i was there on assignment to interview this guy while he was living there for a year. https://web.archive.org/web/20160701195043/https://www.playboy.com/articles/playboy-interview-ta-nehisi-coates https://twitter.com/scarednaroused/status/1384994742971158529
i mentioned the "hotel room in paris" thing for people who've followed me and remember how that week played out. had no idea that'd bring out the herbs. though being over there definitely brought out some herbs.
