Well, if this song isn’t just wildly relevant – again. Linda Perry and her 90s band 4 Non Blondes reunited for only the second time in the past 30 years at Bottlerocket in Napa last month. And, of course, they played the group’s humongous hit “What’s Up?” Now, we all know Linda has had a wildly successful career as a producer and songwriter behind hits like Pink’s “Get the Party Started,” Christina Aguilera’s “Beautiful” and a host of other artists from Adele to Alicia Keys. And, us sapphics will of course remember when she was married to Melissa, doh, that's a perimenopause brain typo! Sara Gilbert for 10 years, from 2004 to 2014. But there’s just something about “What’s Up?” that continues to be such a clarion call for our times. Like, what the fuck is going on? And, yes, let’s all pray for a revolution. Happy Monday, kittens.
p.s. I also admire Linda’s commitment to humongous hats. Like, don’t get it twisted, she was the O.G. well before Pharrell.

I think you mean Sara Gilbert, not Melissa Gilbert? I was kind of excited there for a moment to learn that Laura Ingalls Wilder (the fictional version) was queer! But no.
