This is an @gregosby.bsky.social appreciation post. Listening to Tyshawn Storey's The Off Broadway Guide to Synergism and Mr Osby's playing on the track Please Stand By (and heck the whole album) is absolute 🔥 Check it tyshawn-sorey.bandcamp.com/album/the-of...

MINIMALISM is available now on selected online platforms- only after I recouped my full production expenses.

Greg Osby's MINIMALISM alternate album cover image. Smoke billowing from a car's rear window.

One of the alternate MINIMALISM album cover concepts. (There were several) Passed on in order to avoid sending out the wrong message. Even though the album IS smoking, that wasn't the point that I wanted to make.

“I Forgive You,” composed by Becca Stevens. Featured on Greg Osby’s album, “MINIMALISM.” (Inner Circle Music) Available exclusively at www.gregosby.com NOT available at iTunes, Amazon, Tidal and definitely not Spotify.

As a note: I deliberately didn’t put my latest project on any platform and sold it exclusively via my website and at my shows. I promoted heavily on every possible social media platform and I recouped my full production budget in 8 months. 100% return and no payouts to greedy, shadowy phantoms.

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

I truly think this whole system of payout via streaming needs to change. As an artist that has been putting my music out independently for almost 20 yrs, I think it’s time to for us to renegotiate these terms. We have to come together to make this change.

Mighty lights.
