@MsMelodyMonroe Quincy was a BEAST in the music game. What's your favourite song that he worked on?

Music has lost a titan. R.I.P. Quincy Jones.

AMANDA SERRANO 💪🏽 I am very impressed by her sportsmanship and level of professionalism despite her losses to Katie Taylor. That woman is hungry and it shows. She won in my eyes!

I feel a residency out of the country in my spirit...

Shout out to everyone who supports indie music and musicians!

Something about that Houston accent 🤩

Someone could be going through their darkest time in life. Then they see a film, listen to a song, read a book, hear a comedy routine, or see a painting & suddenly in their darkness appears a light. I don’t care how hard the business is don’t give up on your art! It holds power

88 years ago today, Jesse Owens won his first Olympics gold medal, he humiliated Hitler at the Berlin Olympics by winning 4 Olympic Gold Medals. Hitler had hosted the Olympics, intending to be a showcase of Aryan supremacy. —On August 3, Owens won the 100 m dash with a time of 10.3 seconds. —On August 4, he won the long jump with a leap of 8.06 metres (26 ft 5 in) (3¼ inches short of his own world record). —On August 5, he won the 200 m sprint with a time of 20.7 seconds, defeating teammate Mack Robinson (the older brother of Jackie Robinson). —On August 9, Owens won his fourth gold medal in the 4 × 100 m sprint relay when head coach Lawson Robertson replaced Jewish-American sprinters Marty Glickman and Sam Stoller with Owens and Ralph Metcalfe, who teamed with Frank Wykoff and Foy Draper to set a world record of 39.8 seconds in the event. Owens had initially protested the last-minute switch.

Where I am currently.

Simone Biles is not a generational talent. She's so good that they had to create a new difficulty level to score her. She has multiple moves named after her. She's not a generational talent. She's the best to have ever existed. And we're all blessed to be able to witness it.

RIP Erica Ash 💔

He a fan, he a fan, he a fan...

Ella Fitzgerald in a Houston jail cell for singing to an integrated audience, 1955. —On 7th October, 1955, Ella Fitzgerald, Georgina Henry, Illinois Jacquet, Dizzy Gillespie, and jazz impresario Norman Granz were arrested for “shooting dice” in Fitzgerald’s dressing room at the Music Hall in Houston, TX. Houston-born Jacquet had wanted to integrate audiences ever since he had played in Los Angeles in 1944 for a benefit organized by Granz (to raise money for the defendants in the Zoot Suit Riots). “I seem to excel on my instrument when I play for an integrated audience,” the saxophonist said. “I love Houston,”Jacquet said after the October concert. “This is where I went to school. This is where I learned everything I know. I was fed up with coming to Houston and playing to a segregated audience. I felt if I didn’t do anything about segregation in my hometown, I would regret it.” Granz arranged the show, and the contract was explicitly worded that the show would be integrated. After the first set, the Houston vice squad stormed into Fitzgerald’s dressing room, guns drawn with the intention of stopping a second set. Fitzgerald and Henry were quietly drinking coffee, but Gillespie and Jacquet were playing dice in the corner, providing the police with an excuse for an arrest. Granz entered the room after hearing the police. He later claimed he saw an officer try to plant drugs in the bathroom. “I’m watching you,” Granz said, and the cop pointed his gun at Granz and threatened to shoot him. The group was met by photographers when they arrived at the jail, tipped off by the cops, and all were booked and fined ($10) before being released. Granz and his musicians returned to perform a second set.

@airgigs Yes, all good now. Thanks!

@MsMelodyMonroe Hey Melody! I think we sorted this out. It was never missing it was a Paypal security check. Let us know if we can be of any assistance. Wishing you great sessions!

@airgigs Hi, I emailed support nearly 24 hrs ago with no response. Now, over $1200 of my earnings are missing in the system. Can someone look into this immediately?

Celebrated my birthday this past weekend. I feel like I have so much to reflect on and share. Soon come...

Thank you so much! ❤️
