Yo I’m all good with artists hiring other trumpet players to cop my sound, but y’all horn players better be getting points on these records bc otherwise you’re fucking up the work I’ve been trying to do for all of us for a decade
Wedding gigs pay more than TV. House band members playing on shows with millions of viewers like @nbcsnl don’t qualify for health insurance. No Streaming Residuals. Its NOT RIGHT! Time for a Fair Deal for ALL musicians present and future! #RespectUs @nbc @ABCNetwork @CBS

#BREAKING: I filed a lawsuit to dissolve the National Rifle Association for years of self-dealing and illegal conduct. The @NRA is fraught with fraud and abuse. No organization is above the law.

They're singing "Down by the Capitol side" instead of "Down by the Riverside."

Only a movement can beat Mitch McConnell. We are the people he has ignored for decades. Black, Brown, and White Kentuckians, from the hood to the holler, we are rising up. We were so invisible to him, he never saw us coming. VOTE this Tues., June 23rd. mobilize.us/bookerforkentuck…

Trump had a bad night in Tulsa. Very low turnout. Even his supporters know that COVID-19 is real and dangerous, and should not be spread at an indoor rally. More importantly, maybe people are catching on that he is a pathological liar and a fraud. Let's keep fighting.

Sharon Jones had one of the most magnificent, gut-wrenching voices of anyone in recent times. She'll be so missed. Too sad x
