This song takes me everywhere, the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. The pure ecstasy of love but also the crush anxiety of not knowing where you stand. exactly what it feels like to be “hung up on your baby” a lot of people know him as the voice of “chef” on South Park but Hayes was a musical genius. A true visionary covering soul, funk, jazz and laying the foundations for rap to exist. This song in particular has been sampled a bunch, famously by the Geto Boys in “Mind Playing Tricks on Me” and Kodak Black’s “Transportin.” A forever fave.

cool ass glasses in the video image but, more importantly, the King of the Vamp proves that even the best songs can stand to be a whole lot longer. shame that this was limited to a bonus track for a euro-only CD release because this? is da best shit ever https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3vuy0QJ0BA

Sometimes you can just exist. you don’t (hopefully) need 50 hustles. You don’t need to be a writer and musician and artist and podcaster and influencer and girlboss or whatever. you don’t even need to signal how cool or smart or attractive you are. I know it’s hard cause I think our society incentives (forces?) people to be “on” all the time, but it’s probably better for your own sake to just exist for yourself and your love ones and to adjust your expectations of what a successful or meaningful life is. Sorry for being pedantic, just know a lot of friends and family my age or younger that seem to be struggling right now in all sorts of ways. Just know, regardless of what anyone says or even what you say or do, that you guys have inherent dignity and you are worth something
