@LondellMcMillan Wish I could be there but see you at Celebration! Thanks for being open to hopefully constructive discussion. 💜

In talking with a few folks who came to Minn for Prince this week. We were asked to have a discussion. I accepted the request. Critics & supporters are welcome to join. Some are critical b/c they're not here. Ok, see you at Celebration for more. We'll also find a broader format!

Welcome 2026!

Sad to hear of the passing of D'Angelo. What a voice! What a heartfelt performer. Prayers to his family. RIP D'Angelo 💔 🙏 😢 hollywoodreporter.com/music/music-ne…

If anyone is heading to Minneapolis State Theatre for Purple Rain….make sure you head inside as the excellent @SlingshotAnnie Andrea Swensson has curated something very special 🙏🏼💜….i have so many photos & will share some soon

Kudos to the Prince Estate for the work on #signofthetimes. Great to see it as crisp as it could get for IMAX! The entire theater was clapping, dancing & smiling. Thanks @LondellMcMillan & @CharlesFSpicer for this! We all even watched the ending credits! Good job fellas! @prince

Happy Birthday Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. "I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear" "The time is always right to do what is right" - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of #MLKDay, I hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.

Happy 66th birthday to the legendary Sade Adu, the queen of quiet storm, whose timeless grace captivates and leaves a mark you won’t forget. 🌹

@MariahCarey We could tell you were getting the start of at least a cold a bit on Monday at the show in Raleigh, but you held it together. Thanks for getting thru that show. Rest & prayers to you feeling better soon!

Pittsburgh, I am sorry to say, I’ve come down with the flu. It breaks my heart that I unfortunately have to cancel tonight’s show. I love you all so much.

Thanks for being so sweet to me Tyka! To Sir & @PrezidentNelson my deepest sympathies on the loss of your mother. Rest amongst the Angels Tyka🙏❤️

So sad to hear of the passing of @tykanelson She was so sweet to me the 1st time I met her and each time I saw her after. To @PrezidentNelson, @justice4cuz & the entire Nelson family my prayers, sympathies and love. RIP Tyka 🙏💜

@drfunkenberry Prayers 2 you @drfunkenberry .. please get them 2 send a blood sample 2 the Mayo Clinic 2 check if u have a syndrome as a result of cancer. A brain MRI will help prior 2 see if cerebellar is affected. Went thru similar with my Mom. She had a syndrome. They may not unless u ask.💜

Hi there! I apologize for being slow on updates. Yesterday & this morning, the neuropathy on my hands was quite painful and numb. Its one of the reasons this update was delayed yesterday to today. It frustrates me cause it means less posts that i want to post and harder to respond to texts. My voice is taking a hit from time to time so unless my voice is at full strength, not going to want to talk & have people hear me like that. First & foremost, I want to thank everyone who has donated and sent positive thoughts while this fight goes on. I appreciate it tremendously.  I am writing this right before my second round of chemotherapy starts. During my first round, there was a scare that 4 nodules in my thyroid might be cancer too.  I had to have 4 separate biopsies, 4 - 25 gauge needle shots. I am happy to say they were all benign!! Whew. The first round of chemotherapy has had some odd side effects with body soreness and fatigue yet even then, I still struggle with sleep. There are more side effects but I felt I was able to manage it.  They are increasing the dosages for the second round so they are saying the bad side effects of chemotherapy are going to happen this time around. Sigh.  I do believe the reason the first round was more manageable is because all of you! To be able to afford to have good food helps tremendously. This coming from a person who has lived off of frozen foods for decades, and now having things fresh all the time.  I met with an oncology dietician before this second round to continue to eat well and get ahead of the terrible side effects that might be coming and talk strategy.  Being a diabetic and being allergic to fish limits healthy options. I am still doing all I can to get my protein and fight off the nausea to get my daily amount.  Been reading a lot and last week was watching some Prince live shows & interviews that featured Cat. What a talent & what a loss we are feeling.  I haven't been able to do as much Prince stuff as I like & what my heart needs but I will continue to keep trying as it does help my soul. I will do my best to keep U updated as much as I can. I am dealing with some other things I do not wish to discuss right now as the top priority is the cancer. I thank you for your donations as eating right and having things to fight this off and make things less painful truly helps. Unfortunately, it does cost a lot for these things and again, I feel the first round wasn't as bad as it could be because of U & everyone helping. The gofundme link is the easiest way to help but if you want to do it in other ways such as paypal or venmo, either way is appreciated. The links are in my bio OR hit me up privately but give me some time although i will try to get back to U asap! Thank U so so much for your continued support and positive energy.  Much Love, always and keep it funky...also....funk cancer!!! gofundme.com/f/Help-Dr-Funk…

When was the last time you saw this level of musicianship?

@50cent can't we keep this one or spin off a few folks or combine a few folks with Tommy? I'm going to miss seeing Davis' and Tariq's scheming. Heck all the cast! What's next? ‘Power Book II: Ghost’ Breaks Audience Record Ahead Of Season 4 Finale deadline.com/2024/09/power-…
