Craig's Pop Life: 3.21.23

Hey, everybody! Hope you had a great week. Welcome to another edition of Craig’s Pop Life, a Black gay excursion into pop culture. It’s giving content, hunny!

Sorry the letter is late again, but ya boy’s been busy. Here are just two things I’ve been up to.

This is a supercut of some segments I did for Black History Month in Canada. You can hear me pontificate on Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj, Elvis, David Cole, and more.

I also recently got the chance to talk to one of my childhood idols, Shalamar’s Jeffrey Daniel.

You can read the interview here.

Well, March 23rd is the born day of my all-time fave singer, Chaka Khan. You can listen to my ‘04 interview with her here.
