in case you missed it, here's the link.
if you don't know who ariel is, he's a gifted pop artist -- beloved by all, until those in the "music journalism" grift found out he supported trump. so they destroyed him.
The record company, called Mexican Summer, dropped Ariel - out of that typical cowardly response to cancel culture. These are the people who turn on the victims to save their own hide. So, when will people start asking about "Mexican Summer?" is that an appropriate name for a record company not in Mexico? Do you sense some cultural appropriation going on?
Anyway, here's the link to the interview.
beneath that is a link to one of ariel's greatest songs (named by Pitchfork as best song of the year roughly 10 years ago). The song will stick in your head like gorilla glue.

Twenty-five years later, we remember the lives lost, the heroes who stepped forward, and the families who have carried the unimaginable pain of losing someone they loved.
9/11 reminded us that nowhere feels completely safe and that life can change in an instant. But it also reminded us of courage, compassion, and the strength of people coming together.
We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
This person was murdered this week in Austin Texas. He was one of the sweetest most helpful persons I’ve ever met. Supremely gentle. Willing to do just about anything for another person. And he was stabbed to death on a street at 11 am in the morning. For no reason other than a maniac was free to roam the streets. Rest in peace Andrew. We won’t forget you.
