Q-Tip is the André 3000 of music producers. I will not be explaining further…

@jasonsdozier When does the application open for businesses to apply for funding?

7 I’m thrilled to see this program come to life and can't wait to see the positive impact it will have on our beloved legacy businesses. Let’s celebrate and support the pillars of our community!

I often tell people these random, magical occurrences happen in Atlanta more frequently than you think. Sometimes it’s a peacock, sometimes it’s a dude dressed like a transformer walking down Boulevard, sometimes it’s an invisible car… #realmagic

The late Rico Wade, Atlanta hip-hop pioneer, is immortalized through music he produced alongside Organized Noize. Outside his funeral this morning, @CAU marching band honored the music producer by playing some of the hits from his legacy career. 🎥 Ryon Horne, Jessica Horne | AJC

Voyager 1 is back! Great news from my favorite NASA program/mission. 🛰

Rico Wade showed whole generations of ATL folks how to develop community, trust yourself, and shine light on everyone you meet. (In real life, not on social media.) We will miss him.

Remembering Rico Wade as an example of what it means to express love through action.

@writegavinwrite @ajc Definitely scooped mine ⚡️

Owner of Sole Play ATL just sent me this photo of a longtime ⁦⁦@ajc⁩ subscriber who read the article about the new Air Max 95 Atlanta and showed up to buy a pair. She brought her AJC, too. FILA. #404Day

Lots of Atlanta love this morning! @floydintl @amenabee @AlejoPorrasArt

Hey Atlanta! Join us on FEB. 23rd @ 8AM held at @plywoodpeople - as we explore this month’s theme NATIVE. We will hear from cultural producer, engineer, and documentarian, Floyd Hall. Where you are from shapes who you are. Where you call home influences your worldview. #cmatl

@wmariano @MinaAnnLee @ajc Thank you so much. And be sure to let everyone know when you swing back to ATL for a visit!

@floydintl @MinaAnnLee @ajc Thank you! I love that you’re doing great things.

It's true. I resigned from the @ajc for a new job out east. I’m excited, but will miss my colleagues terribly. It was an honor to work with them. I'll also miss #Atlanta and all the joy and struggle and sense of mission that make it a place worth believing in.

Great question! Outside of the previously mentioned Roots answer…maybe some of the early Run-DMC stuff???

Doug I really appreciate this. Thank you!

Thank you so much!! I’m excited for this next chapter!

Epic night at Science Gallery Atlanta for the Earwax Records exhibition wrap party. The whole city showed up to show love. ⚡️

@mrichard_craven Sending love your way as well! My heart breaks for those who knew her even more intimately. 🕊 Years ago she came to my first public talk as a writer… (I was so surprised🥹) We became friends that day, and I’ll always cherish our chats & her sending me things to read/listen to.

Gail was a friend. We would talk about books and culture and art…and she made the best charcuterie snacks by hand…she was so nerdy and sweet and would never let me win an argument about hip-hop. I’m so very glad I had the chance to know her for a while. vogue.com/article/model-…
