A sadly ironic comment.
Well, that post was made more than a year before he was diagnosed with cancer, so it’s not that ironic.

I still listen to Blackstar every week (though I skip Girl Loves Me if the kids are around). I think it’s one of his best works, regardless of the drama surrounding its creation and release. It’s a masterpiece.
I liked the title track a lot when I first heard it, and grew to *love* it once I heard it in the context of the album (which I received on the day he died). I use this as my avatar on social media:

“While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I’m a naysayer and hatchet man in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I’ll gladly take another - because I choose to live my life in the company of Ghandi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love. I love you, Sheriff Truman.”
