Hey Friends,

I trust you’ve been staying safe and navigating the summer as best you can (mostly indoors)? I guess you could say I’ve been “bookending” my days as of late: I start the day by reading & writing, and instead of camping out on the couch in front of the telly — I’ve been closing out the day with a comic book, graphic novel or something of the like. (Maybe it’s because there are so few new movies and shows launching right now? I don’t know, but it feels good to get back into books. The old school has become the new school.) 📚

How have you been rediscovering R & R? If you’ve come across any life-hacks that have helped you decompress — I’m all ears! 👂

‎We got it from Here... Thank You 4 Your service by A Tribe Called Quest

Not sure why I’m circling back to this gem from 2016 right now, but it’s crazy how … current … if feels. While this album doles out more samples than a suburban Costco — it never feels overstuffed. If you have yet to experience Tribe’s swan song — check it out. R.I.P. Phife Dawg — you always were ahead of your time. (*those bothered by NSFW language need not apply.)
