All of this.

When I walked into this very lovely restaurant, “Cream” was playing. Now it’s “Erotic City.” Whuuuuuuuuh!

Bright-eyed and floofy-haired for this morning’s #EroticCity40 presentations. Adam Reid Sexton took us on a lyrical adventure exploring Prince’s narrative genius on songs like “Raspberry Beret,” “Illusion, Coma, Pimp & Circumstance,” and “Darling Nikki.”

The legend Herbie Hancock watched the eclipse at my alma mater today. That's hella cool.
