(RECORDED DECEMBER 16, 2018) Yes... Keep one eye open, y'all. It's better late than never that people are posthumously catching the crucial messages in both MJ and Prince's music; but for us, we felt a need to go deeper into our interpretations of the songs' contexts. And besides, Prince has about two billion songs, and we could not possibly cover them all in one episode. Or even two.
One of the things both Prince and Michael encouraged was to look beyond their music and study what was going on in the world, and just as we've covered a few non-music issues in other episodes to some capacity, we go even deeper here (as it is an episode dedicated solidly to political themes). If we are to respect their artistry and humanity, focusing solidly on music would be a disservice to them.
Jesse/Jester and jamilah take another look at the songs which have started flame wars in the respective fan/friend communities, the songs which have united bipartisan support for 'fighting indecency' and most of all... The songs which encourage and inspire people to think.
