do you ever think about how seb came as close to retiring as possible in 2020 but then lewis wrote him a letter and that basically talked seb out of leaving f1

#and if lewis didn’t write that letter we would not have a car crew number 5 in the way we know n love car crew number 5 #and mikey would’ve never found a literal boyfriend in seb #and the aston martin gang would not be able to praise over seb at any given opportunity #and they would not be jamming out to songs before sessions in the garage #or be subject to seb’s music taste in the garage #sebastian vettel #lewis hamilton #sewis

Today's Black History Month illustration is of James “Jimmy Jam“ Harris III & Terry Lewis, one of the greatest producing duo in the history of music.

They’re known for their funky synth heavy grooves and their melodic basslines as well as their dark sunglasses, black suits, and black fedoras.

Both Jam and Lewis grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and they first met in high school (early 1970s) at the University of Minnesota through their Upward Bound program. They grew up listening to different genres. Jam was a pop fan, so he listened to artists such as Seals and Crofts, America, and Chicago. Lewis like artists like Parliament-Funkadelic and Earth, Wind and Fire.

After their time in the Upward Bound program, they stayed friends and played in rival bands against Prince and Morris Day. In the early 80s, Jam convinced Harris to join his band Flyte Tyme. Soon after, Morris Day and Lewis agreed to form the group The Time because of a deal Day made with Prince. While in The Time, they became innovators of the Minneapolis sound, a blend of jazz, soul, R&B, funk, disco, early punk, new wave, and dance.

After The Time’s spot as the opening act on Prince’s Controversy tour was over, Jam and Lewis decided to go to LA and begin creating demos. Their demos eventually landed at Solar Records with Dick Griffey. While Harris and Lewis were busy producing the SOS Band in LA, they ended up missing an important gig with The Time in Atlanta, GA. Because of this, Prince fired them.

After this, they decided to form Flyte Time Productions in 1982. After forming Flyte Tyme Productions, they produced and wrote a string of R&B hits for artists including Gladys Knight, Cheryl Lynn, Force MDs, and Cherelle.

When they were looking for the next artist to work with, they both agreed on the one and only Janet Jackson. While working on her album Control (1986), they continued to refine their songwriting and production skills and also created the basis of the genre “New Jack Swing.”

Here’s a clip of Jam and Lewis in studio with Donnie Simpson:

After the success of Control, they had over three decades of chart topping Billboard singles and albums over various genres. Together, Jam and Lewis have earned more than 100 gold, platinum, multi-platinum, and diamond albums and they have more Billboard number ones than any other songwriting and production team in history.

I’ll be back tomorrow with another illustration and story!

tagged by clara @userhamilton my beloved to do f1 wrapped <3

considered only putting lewis on the drivers but ill give up spots 4 and 5. vb for being a lesbian icon all year and lando bc. i feel like we all know im a lando girlie at this point

i have no idea who has/hasnt done this and also i feel like im blanking on who watches f1 but. i guess ill tag @mrcusarmstrong @44prop @fabioquartararhoe and @leclerrari

#the top races are largely based on (1) whether i was present (2) whether lewis did well #las vegas almost made it but got cut because i didnt enjoy lewis getting fucked over by piastri #i'm also not sure i watched all those races... i'm confident i watched every single one since canada bc going to montreal really changed me #but the early part of the season i feel like i was less religious about it. i have no memory of miami #but the only one im sure i didnt watch was monaco #not to be us centric but . its memorial weekend. im never gonna pick watching a traffic jam in monaco over being outside #anyway .#tag game
