During the madness that was summer of 2020 I had this song on repeat! 🔂
I know it’s a feel good groove & nothing was feel good @ the time - but
Idk hearing JoJo & K-Ci wailing that “Everything’s gonna be alright” helped ease my soul just a little. 🫶🏾

😫 When you got the Qu scrabble piece … & then had to figure out how to finesse the board with limited options ☺️

Higher is such a churchy & bluesy feel. It’s sanctified & secular at the same time! 🥹🤗

Started with U Will know &
made pit stops thru his collabs & worked all the way through each album until the last song on Black Messiah; Another life 🥹😩😭
Felt so connected to his energy via this beautiful thing called music 🫶🏾🎶🎸

All the love you’re seeing for D’Angelo is what happens when you leave the world in a better place than how you found it.

He and his art will be missed.
