I will listen to this when the time is right.  I have a feeling this will have to grow on me 😜

 

Judith Hill has a song about police brutality on her album Back in Time, that she produced with Prince

I'll have to go listen to that again, she should promote it now with all that's  going on

It is the first song "trains go by" on the album Back in Time.

 

I didn't even catch it the first few listens.  It's very funky and upbeat and I can barely understand what she is saying.  Then I started hearing phrases such as shoot you dead and leave your body out in the street.

lyrics

[Chorus]
Like CeeLo Green in a sea of red lights
I might as well be famous, since I ain't gon' be white
One way or another, I know I'll be all right
As trains go by - bad times outta sight

[Verse 1] (Judith Hill & Prince)
Telling you that you're not what you can sing
Everything else here but you're born to be
Calling you names while trying to make you cheat
Shoot you dead and leave your body out in the streets
(Tell me what's fair)

[Chorus]
Like CeeLo Green in a sea of red lights
I might as well be famous, since I ain't gon' be white
One way or another, I know I'll be all right
As trains go by - bad times outta sight

[Verse 2] (Judith Hill & Prince)
How can a chokehold never on TV
Still be okay with the NYC PD
Since ninteen hundred sixty five, thought we were free
We talk about you, we talk about me

[Chorus]
Like CeeLo Green in a sea of red lights
I might as well be famous, since I ain't gon' be white
One way or another, I know I'll be all right
As trains go by - bad times outta sight

[Verse 3] (Judith Hill & Prince)
How many bodies need to hit the ground
'For the masses raise their voice and they make a sound
Hold a Cherry Coke, whatever takes them down
Think about a dance when you hear the sound

[Verse 4] (Judith Hill & Prince)
While Martin sleeps, Brother Malcom is awake
This time they won't plop on our piece of cake
Set em free then, friends, let our reparation shake
Everybody shake no time to waste
(No time to waste)

[Chorus]
Like CeeLo Green in a sea of red lights
I might as well be famous, since I ain't gon' be white
One way or another, I know I'll be all right
As trains go by - bad times outta sight

instagram embed is not working, i'll just post the message, video looks like it'll be cool @MyystikSpiral

 

New video coming soon!!!!

I want to send out a HUGE THANK YOU to every bad ass woman and fella who helped make this week’s video shoot the success it was. You showed up on time, respected everyone’s role and time, exhibited the highest level of professionalism, came prepared and ready to work, left egos at the door, respected mask wearing and each others boundaries and levels of comfort during a pandemic, and ABSOLUTELY SLAYED. I’m in awe of everyone’s work ethic and couldn’t be

I thought she might also :giggle: she keeps herself so busy. I loved hers and Tony's costumes on instagram, lol he is so grown up now.

Have you been watching The Masked Singer, and I Can See Your Voice? they're on Wed nights. Those and the Voice are about the only network shows I watch now, I stream everything else.

The masked singer it's usually someone I've never heard of so I get bored with it

I'm terrible at guessing who is a singer or not :lmao:  The Masked Dancer starts in Dec. maybe that'll  be fun. Mostly I stick to Netflix, Amazon Video, and Peacock
