On Tuesday, January 20, 2026, I’ll be celebrating my birthday in a way that feels especially meaningful to me. From 6:30 pm until close, some of my amazingly talented friends will be taking over the historic, newly renovated Airliner in Lincoln Heights.
We’ll be adding a taste of Jamaica to the downstairs dinner menu, while upstairs the music venue will feature a lineup of some of my favorite DJs (who I’m beyond lucky to call friends). We’ll also be extending happy hour until the kitchen closes at 10 pm — so come early and stay late! (RSVP Link in my bio)

I cannot express enough gratitude to Chef Vinh Nguyen — Owner, Chef, and Visionary of Airliner — who generously and enthusiastically offered his space, time, and talents, along with 15% of the night’s sales, in support of this cause.
When I reached out to these incredible artists, the response was overwhelming. There was no hesitation — just an outpouring of love and support. I am so grateful to each of them for donating their time, talent, and energy to curate a night in support of rebuilding Jamaica after Hurricane Melissa in honor of my birthday.
I can’t wait to see you all, give back, and tear it up with you on the dance floor 💖✨ by @dawes

Pinch me. Woke up in Yosemite.
— been reflecting alot on seasons lately.
Natures Seasons,
Seasons of Life,
Seasoning..
Yose showed me all of mother natures seasons in all their glory for the first time. Can’t believe I’ve never seen the seasons change… i love her more for it.
Where I’m from, we have two. Sunshine, or inside. (We can unpack that later)
I welcomed the seasons of change, and growth, and all of its pains ..and each ultimately brought pleasure (i will not elaborate)—
So just kidding. Dont pinch me. I love this dream. taken in Yosemite National Park by @dawes

Until then please enjoy this collection of out of context photos and words of wisdom from the illustrious @jackblack.
