Jon Batiste Interlude

stupid question i fear...but is the blue banisters cover she posted of her with Tex & Mex def the album art?

when BB, WW & Text book dropped i sort of felt indifferent to them, but as time as gone on, i've fallen in love with each one... probably the title track the most. even when her production feels muted or lets me down in some way, her melodies/voice always bring me back

imo she probably made it clear she doesn't put money of his towards her art so she can keep her autonomy. if it was on his dime, everyone would attribute future success of hers to him/his money. and i know some folks thought they were being funny on twitter saying stuff like "knowing she doesn't use him for money makes me respect her LESS" but if she was using him for money, all sorts of horrible things would be said about her for that, too.

i secretly pray i talk to jesus ends up on the record

i think this is an unpopular opinion.. lust for life is a masterpiece of an album and imo her best album cover to date. even though there are some songs that are skips for me, the ones that hit, hit the hardest. cherry, heroin, lust for life, 13 beaches, get free, change... perfection
