Early 90's, I was walking through the hallways at Oakwood Apartments on Barham BLVD in the Burbank area of Los Angeles. As I was walking, I heard original music from down the hallway and once I got to the door which was open, I couldn't help but stop and look inside. There, I saw a state-of-the-art studio in the middle of the living room. DJ Fuze was on the couch and Money-B was washing dishes. Money B told me to come in. I was there kicking it with DU listening to versions of music that I never heard before. It was surreal. Then, low and behold Shock G comes out! They didn't know me from adam but were so gracious and humble. Rest In Peace and Power Shock G!

Turf Wars on streets. Firearms & Drugs being dumped into Our communities. Drive by shootings, innocent people being in the crossfire. Urban Blight & Plight. Children under 16 toting guns, killing people, selling drugs, dying from abusing it and getting shot down for fuckin up someone's product whether they fronted it to them to sell or the child came across the drugs playing with it, etc. Children being born addicted & raised by KrakkHead parents most of whom didn't care about them, many babies/children ending up in another nightmare called ACS/BCW/CPS/DFYS/Etc. Hell, even pork-skin blue-eyed, ta|king 2-|egged beasts came out of the *_white picket closet_* with their abusing of hardcore drugs - Krack/Heroin/Acid/Etc. But they weren't always called drug addicts, they were & still are called *_"sick" & trying to cope with their daily problems._*

Everybody's having fun, except for that fish dying on the floor.

He was on his Andy Kaufman vibes too! Dude was arguably the most fearless man in hip hop. I hope he remembered how loved he was before he passed away.
