- Questlove posted a list of artists that read The Roots, A Tribe Called Quest, The Isley Brothers, Rihanna, Sade, Megan Thee Stallion, DaBaby, Hiatus Kaiyote, Sault, and he had DaBaby's name crossed out.
- He said in the caption, "I was hypothetically asked if I was curating an updated version of #SummerOfSoul who would be my acts? I gave my dream list."
- Quest continued, "And now I’m updating my list ——because it’s 2021 & f**k the bulls**t. I’m especially not here for any savagery (if you’re lost: Google the idiocy of the crossed out). I’m not trine be all performative smurf & create a social flogging or start some clickbait headlines. That’s missing the point. But right is right & his actions are wrong. Somebody Gotta say it: Homophobia/Transphobia/Xenophobia/Misogyny/Racism——this should go w/o saying is morally wrong."
