The Sunday Drop · 2026-06-21
"I'm Coming Out" -- Diana Ross (1980)
The idea came to Nile Rodgers in a bathroom stall, surrounded by men dressed as Diana Ross. An anthem was born.

"I Found My Smile Again" -- D'Angelo (1995)
A deep cut from Brown Sugar, buried on the album's second half. A song about someone helping you find a part of yourself you thought was gone.

"Can We Pretend" -- Bill Withers (1974)
The proposition is absurd: to paint tomorrow with no colors from today. Bill Withers asked anyway, with Jose Feliciano on piano and Dorothy Ashby on harp.

"You Haven't Done Nothing" -- Stevie Wonder (1974)
The clavinet riff is a typewriter slammed on a desk. The message is three words long: you have produced nothing.

"Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just as Bad)" -- T-Bone Walker (1947)
The B-side that defined electric blues guitar. T-Bone Walker bent a note in 1947 and every guitarist since has been catching up.
