You know how we often try to define what 'funk' is? Well, I was listening to this show in the car today, and this is the best description I've ever heard. Bootsy hits the nail on the head when he says "funk is...making something out of nothing".
It's why funk resonates with us so much...particularly black folk. This is what we do...whether its food, music, whatever, we have a marvelous propensity to create something from nothing. Our culture will forever be a testament to this.
Anyway, let me get off of my philosophical ish and enjoy this here funk... – at Stevenson Ranch, CA

RIP David Z (David Rivkin). 💜 A Grammy-winning producer/engineer, he helped shape the Minneapolis Sound with Prince and others, leaving an enduring mark on music. Heartfelt condolences to the Rivkin family, Bobby Z, friends, and all who knew him. 🕊️🙏🏽

Sad news...
RIP to the incomparable, fierce, and polarizing music mogul Clive Davis. He was 94.

Joni Mitchell gets a gift during an interview with Dutch TV show Zomerrock in 1988: Prince's latest album Lovesexy, released mere weeks ago at that time. She briefly discusses how she can't hear her influence on his music, even if Prince claims so.

UNRELEASED #PRINCE SONGS WE HEARD AT CELEBRATION 2026 @PAISLEYPARK - A THREAD 🧵
1. "Whenever" (1976)
One of the earliest found recordings of Prince and Grand Central band from an actual studio. This track starts with a jazzy piano intro with sweeping percussion and P falsetto.
Estate announced a new @prince LP, Timeless, compilation of unreleased tunes out Aug. 28. Reaction has focused on randomness of 10 songs, spanning 1977 to '16, but we won’t know the conceit of the project till we read liner notes or statement from the estate, if those happen.

We've started a gofundme for the family of Ryan Porter. Ryan was in a devastating car accident that took his life on May 16. He loved his two daughters endlessly. His loss leaves an enormous financial void for his family. Please give and share if you can. gofund.me/467820ca4
