And we're starting the show off with my boo, Merry Clayton! Repost @jooksi__ with @repostapp. ・・・ #JooksiRadio may hail from NYC, but we got hella love for the West Coast. Tune in this week as @improvian and @fredara wax poetic about how the Pacific Ocean and the land of palm trees gave us SOLAR Records, N.W.A., TDE, and some of the most exciting jazz we've heard in years. @Jooksi_ Radio airs on @ablradio today at 10am and 6pm and on Saturday at 2pm. www.ablradio.com

I woke up this morning tired. I started thinking about Baltimore and just felt friggin' tired.
Thankfully, this song came into my spirit and I forgot just how smooth the groove is and how perfect lyrics are.
We aint got time to be tired Cuz the tired move to slow We aint got time to be tired cuz the war has just begun You say what war? The war for freedom and equality We got a long long way to go....

Erica Campbell. Madonna. Janelle Monae. What do these three women have in common? Behaving badly in the eyes of some people, whether it's changing a style or just being bold. Were they stepping out of bounds or do people just need to let them be? On this episode of #JooksiRadio, Fredara and Improv will tackle that topic as well as discuss the recent article by Michael Eric Dyson. Don't worry, we will still give you some good music in between. So tune in at ablradio.com and be part of the discussion! www.ablradio.com

I hate that @afranks3 has to keep doing these, but I'm grateful that he literally creates a view of their humanity that is often dismissed in the media.
