This is an official old man post!
It's interesting to get the privilege to watch cats grow up...
To watch Jon Batiste embody the lineage of not only his New Orleans roots is amazing. He has the spirit of Little Richard, Elton John, Fats Domino, and so many others who challenged the conventional perception of what people believe you're supposed to be.
I had the pleasure of being on his very first record. He's had a positive attitude about life and the music since then.
More importantly, he is a great example of what we should strive for in life. Not the fame (maybe a little fortune 😀), but the idea that the art we create should be with the intention of connecting with people. It should be uniquely you. That way you won't be here today, gone tomorrow.
Good job bruh!
