lol why do people disregard her mtv unplugged album like it didn’t spawn the sample to ‘all falls down’? miseducation was great but let’s stop acting like she NEEDS that same team to create another amazing body of work, when she’s already has proven that she can without.

In short, the team who did the album don’t fuck with me anymore since I didn’t give them proper credit & I can’t do it again by myself.

Saxophonist cktrl on how he rediscovered his passion: "I had a corporate job where they weren’t used to a young Black person. That’s what brought me back to my instruments. If I’d had a shit week at work, I just played in the dark when I got home." bit.ly/4sI8zkn

Akinola Davies Jr. invited me and a few others to see his and his brother Wale's debut full length movie, "My Father's Shadow" several months before its public release. I was so moved and in tears by the end of the movie. Fully deserved recognition.
I think this week is the last time it's at major cinemas in the UK and IE. Tip. 🖤💐

cktrl made one of last year's best jazz fusion records, mixing ambient, downbeat, and electronic music into something deeply soulful and life-affirming.
@stalesmcgalesss interviewed him about it, growing up in London, family, and more.
