I can't think of or conjure the appropriate adjectives to describe how moved I was by this piece of

writing. Thank you!

Beautiful parallel between him and hiphop turning 50. Appreciating 3000’s new project more with this context. His GQ story interview was so beautiful and honest. I can’t rap about what I used too anymore- I’m in a different stage, he says. I never thought about this idea he is still rapping, still bearing his words into the atmosphere - it just in a different form now. How beautiful it is to recognize the ego.

You right about Black music so reverently - I love it. Thank you.

Please prepare yourself. I’m about to be effusive about your writing again, but I waited to read this one. I saw it but waited like you wait all year for that special birthday cake. You don’t even steal a slice if you see one at the bakery. I waited like that. I hate Mondays. And boy, was I rewarded. Today’s Monday feels like my birthday. And fuck cake. Every one of your words is manna. How you weaved in Dolphy, 808s, and Mobb Depp and still delivered the word made me feel like shouting hallelujah when I got to your last line. Thank you so damn much! And thank you, Mr. 3000.

You are such a force. Your writing is such an opera and I’m so grateful to have its melody alongside the music of your muse.
