Just got back to my mothers birthland for the first time in 9 years (Zambia) and I can’t recommend going back to your roots and touching grass enough 😭

🍉I was 4 and it was my first time visiting Serbia; the whole trip my family called me šećer because I loved eating sugar cubes off the table. It was August and it was sweltering and I wasn’t used to having no air conditioning. I ran around shirtless in denim sandals and played in the hose and the river and ate massive slices of watermelon larger than my head and sweeter than candy.
We took a drive to visit our extended family in a rural area where they always served a bubbling pot of fish stew with all the bones and bits in it. They served me ice cream and told me, in English, that it was very hot. I still get the words hot and cold mixed up in Serbian. One of my relatives french braided my hair for the first time. I was always fussy about having my hair even brushed but I had never experienced scalp pain like that before.
I remember watching the Simpson and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles dubbed poorly in English. I remember plates of the best food I’d ever tasted and cakes as soft as clouds. I remember playing with my cousins and being fawned over in a language I only knew a handful of words in. I remember drinking fresh spring water under the mulberry tree. I remember the colorful rooms and cracked stone streets and Cyrillic graffiti and dogs and cats roaming the graveyard. I remember my Nana and my Deda and my Dad looking so excited to show me their homeland for the first time.

Having physical things is just nice. Going analog with articles has a much more personal feel and there’s nothing like having a goated coffee table collection.

I genuinely believe Crack is the only music magazine on plant earth that has their finger on the pulse of what’s actually popping. Every cover interview is fantastic and relevant + I’m always put on to new artists that end up having an incredible year after being featured. The gig guide is 10/10 if you live in London and it’s also FREE every month.

One of his more underrated albums that literally has zero skips. Text book example of a perfect album to me and one I recommend to anyone as an entry point to Princes gargantuan discography.
