Questlove is launching his own book imprint, AUWA Books (the name is a tribute to Prince). First up is a book by Sly Stone in October. Questlove's 'Hip Hop is History' will be published in 2024. Non-music titles will be published as well. Questlove is also executive producing a doc on the late, great JDilla, following the massive success of Summer of Soul. Is it #BlackFriday yet?
One of the greatest moments in recent TV history: De La Soul and The Roots perform their stone classic, Stakes is High. Questlove holding down the #JDilla beat. There are other superb versions of this classic on the web, but this one is fresh. Makes whatever day you watch it #BlackFriday
Been watching this performance all week--#DeLaSoul killing it with the legendary #Roots. #Questlove alone is #hiphop royalty. Producer, author, drummer, dj, filmmaker, musician & music historian. His life was changed by De La Soul and #JDilla so you know this performance means something to him. Original founder #Trugoythedove passed last month, which adds another dimension. Check the comments on YouTube: many people are watching this with tears in their eyes. Tears of joy, too.
