To celebrate Gus’s 27th birthday, Oskar and I asked @overallmurals to paint another mural and they did an amazing job. Special thanks to @jasperpatch and @metzxart for their beautiful artistry and to @mmainenti for documenting their work for us. You can see this mural in person at 29 Wyckoff Ave, on the corner of Wyckoff Ave and Troutman street in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Special thank you also to @yoshinostudios for taking the photograph that served as the reference for this painting. If you come on November 1, Gus’s birthday, we will be doing something special in the neighborhood…

Star Shopping has just surpassed 1 billion streams on Spotify. Gus made Star Shopping mid-August, 2015 after getting home from celebrating his grandfather’s 78th birthday. It is amazing to consider the fact that he made such a beautiful song so simply—using a beat a friend of his from the Internet had given him, a pair of $200 headphones, my old MacBook Pro and GarageBand. He had no label, no studio, no promo. He worked alone in his bedroom, usually throughout the night. The success of this song is testimony to his gift as a poet, his passion, his honesty, and the way he used his voice to evoke feelings in all of us.

Gus was very proud of this body of work. He created it at a time of excitement and anticipation in his life.

Finally.
Gus and Makonnen completed the final songs to an album that would later be known as “DIAMONDS” in Los Angeles, 6 years ago, during the late summer of 2017.
Gus was absolutely thrilled about working with Makonnen. When he came home in August, he played those songs for us—over and over. Gus was incredibly proud of those songs.
While Gus was glad to be home for his grandpa’s birthday, he could not wait to get back to making music with Makonnen. He knew there was more music to make, and he knew he had limited time due to his upcoming fall COWYS tour, so he organized his next chunk of studio time so he could meet Makonnen in London, where they made the last batch of songs.
We all waited with anticipation the release of this album. Then Gus died. I knew I had to do everything I could to help get this album released.
I am very grateful to Makonnen not only for his patience, grace, and fortitude, but also for the tenderness with which he re-assembled the original “Diamonds Team” to gently prepare the album for its release. He did an amazing job—they all did.
Gus would be so proud to know that this album had come out. He would be grateful to his friends for taking the time and care to do it just right.
