New Yorker (New York, N.Y. : 1925), July 12 & 19, 2021: in a Talk of the Town article on page 23 (Ahmir (Questlove) Thompson; There are perfectly serious record collectors who might lug an armload of vinyl home from a flea market. Then there are those whose passion for LPs tests the load-bearing limits of residential architecture, collectors like Ahmir (Questlove) Thompson, the drummer, d.j., and co-founder of the hip-hop group the Roots, which since 2014 has been the house band for Jimmy Fallon's "Tonight Show"; his own collection has more than doubled in the past six years, from 90,000 to 200,000+; most are stored upstate, at a farm he bought last year during the pandemic, partly because he "thought it was the apocalypse," and partly because he needed a bigger space to house all the tonnage; although he was nervous about directing his first film, he agreed to take on the project, which is out this month as "Summer of Soul")
