Shit isn't the same now. I knew the day would come, as with any of us but I didn't think the man wouldn't live to see 60. As I type, I'm hoping that I can delete this but as more legit news sources are coming through, it's harder to ignore.
I can't think straight right now.
Honoring all actors who brought us everything from Blacula to Cabin in the Sky to Purple Rain to The Thing With Two Heads -- and everything in between!

Way Back Wednesdays - Piece of My Heart x2
Feeling kind of quirky today so I felt a surprise was in order. Sometimes I like when we cover records originally done by a non-Black artist. Proves we can sing anything. So here's the classic (Take a) Piece of Heart, which was originally done by Janis Joplin, covered by Erma Franklin (Aretha's sis, for those who don't know and she also did an awesome remake of Light My Fire) and Etta James. Enjoy.
