[@christophejames4292]

There was a pop music's world before Nile. And there is a new one now. Thanks to him. Period.

This is probably the best music lecture, and music industry lesson, that I've ever seen. EVER, and I've seen a ton. What a musician. What a man!

If I were to ever have the privilege of meeting & having a conversation with Nile I'd mention to him that I was in kindergarten that 1st year that Sesame Street was on...had that album & later went on to becoming a serious Chic Organization fan less than 10 years later...his music has been a serious influence in my life (not a musician) since I was 5 years old.

Sugar Sugar. Wilson Picket picked up the song after Nile's conversation with his confidante. Took it back to the Charts! Nile Knows This!
