@ColinMParker *hand…. I don’t twitter much

@ColinMParker All the prayer and emojis VB 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

A few times a year I come to Twitter to remind you: if you aren’t following the work of @Austin_Antoine, you’re making a mistake. He is hands down the best performer out there. His command over words is what I think real life magic feels like.

@PopCrave @morristhefriend got the tape on repeat🔥🔥

Morris The Friend has released his new song and music video for “Tesla." Watch: m.youtube.com/watch?v=HKQ4ep…

@hellomamahaze we GOTTA gotta jam again. The love y’all put on that stage is too strong and thanks for letting me share it with you 😊 - 2 CITIES LEFT! This Sunday I’ll be in Sacramento with @jodavimusic and… instagram.com/p/B272afPBJ7O/…

@MikexMerchant Caught me so off guard that I had to check haha

@heylittlelunch @MikexMerchant Of course, and anybody that tells you otherwise is a purest thats too self centered to allow someoen to have their own viewpoint. There is no wrong way to experience something, and no one should be forced to like something. And you’re wrong TPAB is better 😂😂

I can’t stand “initial thoughts” in Music. If you only listened to an album once or twice, don’t tell me what you think of it. Good or bad I don’t wanna hear it.

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch Haha cant step into this one Merch haha. I dont understand Morris. I dont speak mumbo jumbo

@heylittlelunch @Austin_Antoine Maybe. Very possible. Also very possible you calling it trash after one listen is unfair to yourself and the work. Haha

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch And the fact that our sentiment for one body of work is the same, we’re just arriving at it for different reasons. 3 years from now our appreciation will be the same, we just arrive to it different. “If its dope its dope”-A “This is why this is dope”- Merch

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch Hahah bruhh the fact that we’re using the same avenues to relay thought is AMAAAAZING

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch Had an egg mcmuffin for the first time when i was 5, im 27. Still good. Similar ingredients, one was good the first time I had it and still holds true

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch To each their own. Subjectivity, relatability, relativity are real. I could play a brilliant album i didnt vibe with on day one and still knock it cause i didnt love it with my initial interpretation. Logically eggs benedict should be a dope delicacy, im still not rockin tho

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch 3rd 4th and etc were the dissecting points. The initial wave was the brilliance that was the artistry and that’s the idea that you can get lost in the work. You can later call it brilliance but initially its bliss

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch The idea that everything has to be deep is taking the power away from initial experiences. I heard control, i liked control and allowed myself to be amazed im that moment. Gave it a second listen and the chills were just as strong...

@miaaa_biaaa @MikexMerchant Haha yea im here for this one. Time isnt promised. Digest what you can when you can, like it, be present and let it effect you. Lesson I learned from @MikexMerchant 2 days ago

@MikexMerchant @heylittlelunch Disagree. How many times did you need to see Heath Ledgers joker to know it was impactful?

@heylittlelunch Bruh, I’m telling you. Real art must be digested. If it takes you 2 years to make something, people don’t just “get it” after 20 minutes. There are of course cases of instant classics or things that already resonate but that art usually isn’t pushing anything or different.

@MikexMerchant Guilty! Man if it resonates it resonates. If we can believe in love at first sight then same can go for art

@jdmaestro @blackthought @questlove @theroots @jimmyfallon Never got into Gran Turismo but I used to excavate video game soundtracks

@Austin_Antoine @blackthought @questlove @theroots @jimmyfallon Wait, YOU TOO?!?!

Don’t think I didn’t notice @blackthought spittin’ ‘I Don’t Care’ on the Tonight Show last night. That was the song that introduced me to the roots. I was playing Gran Turismo and it was one of the background songs. @questlove @theroots @jimmyfallon

@heylittlelunch Also a Go-Go track. I know how dire this information is to you... m.youtube.com/watch?v=7HCX8D…

@SofarSoundsSF was dope @isaisadancer came I put her on blast. Always feel at home at @OLDBUSTAVERN Hard to condense it all into a post. It was just... dope #sofarsounds #sanfrancisco #oldbustavern
