Jon Batiste Interlude

I really hope she's ok.  

I have def seen her talking about distancing herself from music a bit, calling it a side project or side quest, but this update struck me as a little bit more 'serious' or something
 
for those not on twitter, she said ( in response to if she will release the I Wanna Be Software music video):
 
"Well I've said this many times but had one of the single most traumatic events of my life this week. Def reconsidering everything abt my life. I am still just trying to breathe and move out of shock, but I think I'm done with grimes for a bit.

A lot has been going on in my life for the last few years that I have mostly kept from the public. I may still do that out of respect for others, but the last few days rly taught me that without fundamental change I'm gna die from stress and my kids won't be ok.
 
Maybe this is tmi, I'm just totally incapable of continuing to pretend that the situation has been remotely ok or that I'm not on my last legs and beyond mentally totally destroyed by what's been going on in my personal life. It's deeply effected my work obviously. As much as I'd love to drop the video, I think I gotta figure out family and health over the next few weeks."

oh I agree! I just meant I saw it coming, not that I don't believe her. I think being associated constantly as 'elon musk's (ex)girlfriend' has really sucked the joy out of it, she spent her whole career fighting sexism and disbelief she was doing it all herself, then it all came crumbling back down. (then compiling 2 kids and medical issues)

there's something sinister and unpleasant about AI music being fed into playlists and people's feeds while streaming services largely/completely ignore independent artists. 

Wait, now she's announced book I, II and III?  while also saying Book I was stale to her now?  I wonder why she keeps wanting to build upon it then.
 
"book" being the name she gives to not one not two but THREE albums feels so uninspired
