From today's Jason Collins piece:
I had a happy childhood in the suburbs of L.A. My parents instilled in us an appreciation of history, art and, most important, Motown. Jarron and I weren't allowed to listen to rap until we were 12. After our birthday I dashed to Target and bought DJ Quik's album Quik Is the Name. I memorized every line.

his daughter was just charged with murder so that might set the release schedule off some :(
it's a really horrible story i recommend not googling it.

sad face is a reference to the crime not the setting off the release schedule. didnt mean to be so flippant

I had the opportunity to see him on Friday but I ended up leaving before he went onstage because I was too drunk and the venue was too crowded.

It was a really good show, although I wish he'd given less time for Quixotic to fuck around and his son's miniset was totally unnecessary. He has a great stage presence and had a lot of fun and danced around a lot. It all felt pretty loose. He went through like a bottle and a half of champagne on stage. At one point he had Quixotic do a mix of a bunch of songs he'd ghost-produced. He sang part of "Let's Get Down" over "Smells Like Teen Spirit". The version he did of "Do I Love Her?" had this really weird slower, Dilla-ish sounding version of the beat? He was using two mics with two mic stands the whole show for some reason and in the middle of "Mo Pussy" he suddenly goes "1-2-3-4 Show's over!", slams both of them down and disappears offstage, but then he came back and did a bit of "Why U Bullshittin'".
Setlist:
????? (No one seemed to be rapping along to this, so it might be new)Can U Werk Wit Dat?Pitch in on a PartyTroubleDiggin' U OutCan I Eat It?Jus Lyke ComptonPut It On MeDown, Down, Down
His son came out and did a miniset at this point

Oh, and he spent the whole intro of "Trouble" doing the reject haha
