Just exactly how did NPR think they would be able to fit Big Sean behind their Tiny Desk? Don’t they know that this is the “I Don’t Fuck With You” guy? If that Desk is too Tiny, Big Sean will tell you. Plus, his name sorta suggests catastrophe with the whole setup.
Fortuitously, not only did Big Sean fit, but he brought an even bigger band, a DJ, a vocal quartet, and a string quartet. Plus, he and his retinue performed what even NPR acknowledges is “one of...

Amp Fiddler, a keyboardist for George Clinton’s pioneering funk collective Parliament-Funkadelic and mentor to late Detroit producer J Dilla, has died. He was 65 years old.
The funk and soul musician had been recovering from a 2022 surgery for an undisclosed illness. A GoFundMe campaign launched last year raised more than $75,000 for Fiddler’s “continued healing as he journeys back to the stage,” and a benefit concert was held in his hometown of Detroit earlier this month to further cover medical expenses.
“Rest in eternal musical excellence Parliament-Funkadelic keyboardist Joseph Anthony “Amp” Fiddler,” Parliament-Funkadelic wrote on Facebook. “Fly on Amp! We love you dearly!”
Questlove paid tribute to Fiddler on Instagram, writing, “Rest easy brother Amp. For all those talks during the Pfunk tour. For all the music. Especially of course mentoring the one who mentored us (Dilla) — thank you brother.”
