Mj hat and glove that he had on at Motown 25 that he gave to the museum.
Candy machine, the candy is still from the 50s.
Artists used to leave a nickel or penny on top of the candy machine for Steve Wonder
Studio, those are holes in the ground where the producers use to drive their feet in to create the beat.
The actual studio where the records were recorded
Dope shit.
Back in the day, your record label could only have 2 records playing on the radio, with Motown of course they had several acts and hits, so what Gordy did was created another record label and have that artist's song under that record label so that their song could be on the radio, so if you ever find yourself wondering why some Motown artists songs are under some unheard record label, that's the reason, so that their song could be played on the radio. Gordy would create 8-20 labels to bypass the rule.
Martha Vineyard Shit.
Ferry to take you over to the island. Oak Bluff is the main county/area on the island. There are 4 or 5 counties/big areas on the island.

Napa Valley
Wine Bottles stored in a castle in the area, shit been down in the dungeon since the 1600s or longer.
Napa Valley Train ride takes you through the area to see the vineyards that are grown around the town. Buku vineyards all over the town.
The week leading up to Halloween, the castle turns into a big ass Halloween site, where celebs fly in, dress up and party from sun up to sun and drinking wine.
Kim K rented the whole castle out maybe 3 or 4 years ago.
Napa Valley has no hoes
It's a nice cool trip if you wanna fuck wit it, wine is very good.
Was in Charleston this weekend for a weekend getaway with the wife. We stopped in the African American Museum there and took a few pics of what had me in my feels and inspired me a little bit.
You looked in the mirror, didn't know what to do
Yesterday your eyes were brown but today they are blue
Your whole appearance is a lie and it could never be true
And if you really loved yourself then you would try and be you
If your hair and eyes were real, I wouldn't have dissed ya
But since it was bought, I had to dismiss ya
But if you can't achieve it, then why not try and weave it
If you can't extend it then you might as well suspend it
