If your only way to be in proximity to women is through domination, then you're a loser.

I'm not appalled.

I'm kinda bored, to be honest.

Because I know the game, and I also know what I look like.

Every time I hear of the most disgusting, bigoted men, I can always guess what they look like, and I'm usually proven right.

Because unfortunately for them, their time to get a woman was when we couldn't get credit cards. So now they're upset.

D’Angelo was only 51. That’s why I don’t trip about being called old. Each year we get is a blessing. No telling how many we get.

Hey guys...what if we just all act like we didn't read the news and we all move forward collectively believing he is still with us? He takes his time between projects, right? This is just him preparing us for another beautiful classic album, right? RIGHT?! (Please agree 😭)

Lauryn Hill just shared a moving tribute to the late D’Angelo:

People need reflection.

I regret not having more time with you. Your undeniable beauty and talent were not of this world, and a presence not of this world needs protection in a world that covets light and the anointing of God. You sir, moved us, stirred us, inspired and even intimidated others to action with your genius. Thank you for being a beacon of light to a generation and beyond who had no
remembrance of the legacy that preceded us. Thank you for charting the course and for making
space during a time when no similar space really existed.

You imaged a unity of strength and sensitivity in Black manhood to a generation that only saw itself as having to be one or the other. It is my earnest prayer that you are in peace, far away from selfishness, fear and/or controlling interests. Far from possessiveness, far from greed, far from manipulation, far from exploitation, far from intentionally designed chaos and that you Brother are in peace, in bliss and in eternal light and fulfillment with our Father in heaven. I Love you and I miss you. May God grant peace and shelter to your family, true friends and genuine appreciators, Brother, King.

I've lowkey been in this place since late 2023. I purposely don't date and I turn down romantic advances all the time. Someone would have to be pretty damn persistent to change my mind.

Gorwls. You ever ran from a relationship or potential relationship cuz you were afraid of getting hurt, or falling too deep???

Reading this book where the mfc is & then heard a song about the subject earlier. Got me wondering. Cuz EYE cannot recall ever doing so.

I’ve always loved D’Angelo’s cover of EWF’s “Can’t Hide Love.” (EWF covered it from Creative Source’s “You Can’t Hide Love” but D’Angelo’s vocals and arrangement are closer to EWF’s).

This whole live album is great.

Someone told black men and women to get themselves checked regularly and… there was hostility about it?
