Unhappy Valentines

Champagne Duane x Elin Skei

Record Details

Released:
2015
Genre:
Hip Hop/R&B

February 13, 2015

Friday the 13. A perfect day for heartache. Elin Skei and I have collaborated to create Unhappy Valentines. This 5-track EP is the boy meets girl love story without the fairy tale ending. It starts off as all fun and games on “Better Than That” where Elin isn’t exactly feeling the boyish pickup lines. Then I get a little personal on tracks like “She Loves Me Not”, “Want Me Back,” and “The Worst.” Elin explodes on “Faded” as she reminisces on a love lost.

A bittersweet birthday it is. A little more bitter A bittersweet birthday it is. A little more bitter than sweet. Today is the farewell service for my amazing Granny Pearl who lived to 101, 11 months, 4 days. As my uncle put it, “that’s how much she loves life.” She was an absolute MATRIARCH who raised 10 kids of her own and a village full of others! She led with love and an unparalleled sense of humor. A trendsetter- she was dying her hair blue before it was cool to do. 
I wasn’t able to visit her in recent years so she can drop more gems on me, but she instilled this in me long ago and I’ve never forgotten it, so I leave it with you:

The heights that great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling onward through the night.

Assignment understood. Rest In Peace, Granny. Get up there and shine your light! ☀️ 

Absent from the body, present with the Lord.

“Jesus finally got his bride. Granny, dance with him.” @nas (kinda)

“I woke up early on my born day, I’m 40, it’s a blessin/ the essence of effervescence fills my body now I’m fresh and…” @nas (kinda)

Thanks to everyone who’s reached out to show some love on this glorious day the universe has allowed me to see. So grateful for the family I’ve been blessed with and the friends I’ve made along the way. Humbled and excited to add to this journey, and even more determined to do it my way. 

Year 40. Let’s get it poppin 🍾
