For the first time since 1988, the (current) American “government” is making like HIV/AIDS wasn’t/isn’t a thing – meaning an ongoing global pandemic – and, per the directive of the twice-impeached orange hemorrhoid, we are not to recognize or commemorate or even mention, if he had his way, World AIDS Day at the federal level.

Did you ever watch Madonna’s secretprojectrevolution, the 17-minute short that she and her longtime creative partner and BFF, photographer Steven Klein, delivered in 2013 to launch their global Art for Freedom initiative? No? Get! And #DoMore. The time really is right now.
Edited from “Oh, M…Oh, Miami” x Movie Martin, Nov. 20, 2012, for @fileunderm and 2025 So I know what I’m getting Madonna for the holidays: a watch. Look, I love my Queen like, in ways that cannot be good for me. The woman’s phenomenal. She’s fun. An individual. And a ball-buster who, at 54, still can […]
That’s the approximate number of people that turned up on Copacabana beach in Rio do Janeiro to see Madonna perform a free, additional show of her sold-out “Celebration Tour” on May 4. That crowd waited and grew exponentially for days ahead of the show, in temperatures that reached 30 degrees Celsius, and when the time […]
Just the other day I was out in MMXXIami, having a daydream of Hollywood – of Hollywood, Fla. Of a chill place I’m calling Hollyweed. I saw green. I thought of hemp, hospitality, and mixology. Of possibility. Then, I woke up the boss of my reality and kept hoping. I just kept hoping. If Madonna […]
The thing about the DaBaby is he said something ignorant. Look it up. DaBaby thought he was being funny/macho/who knows (who cares), when he said what he said on stage at Rolling Loud Miami on July 25, and he wasn’t. And so Madonna took DaBaby to school for it, so what more can I say […]
It’s time. Time to get vaccinated, time to keep smart and wear our masks among large crowds of people we do not know, especially indoors. Time to enjoy a little music. I put together this Untitled Playlist for After the Pandemic a few months into the pandemic, ’round the time we were hitting peak baking […]
The thing about Madonna’s MDNA is – and pay no mind to this one, if you are underage – the album, maligned as though it may be, works surprisingly well on shuffle. On shuffle. With a side of spark it up. I remember this one time, in Miami, when I smoked a little bit of […]
#Iclosemyeyes…and I see Capri, indeed (these are the days for a little escape, after all). I can hear and see fireworks over Moschino (perhaps a celebration is nigh closer to the here and now, and the coming week). I can feel the island breeze. I put a few records. And I am there, lost in […]
Dudes. I was last week years old, when I saw this performance of “Gambler,” from “The Virgin Tour,” by Madonna for the very first time. No. Joke. Like she does during “Nobody Knows Me,” from the “Re-Invention Tour,” this is some energetic shit. Madonna dominates her dance floor stage left; much like during the glorious […]
