#THROWBACKTHURSDAY [5.17.2012]
May 17th, 2012
The debut event, kicking off the #ThroughTheMic event series, takes place tonight at LACMA, so we thought it was appropriate to feature a video from the series co-curator MURS today. This video, which features 9th Wonder, is for the song “I Used to Love Her (Again).”
RIP Donna Summer (1948 – 2012)
May 17th, 2012
Donna Summer, the queen of disco, lost her battle with cancer and passed this morning. The disco legend is known for hit songs, such as “Last Dance,” “Hot Stuff,” “She Works Hard for the Money,” “I Feel Love” and “Love to Love You Baby.” Summer is a five time Grammy award winner and was also nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The 63-year-old was planning to release another album this year and kept her illness private.
