Sad news, a true genious, "Peices of a Man", "Bridges", Revolution Will not be Televised", Free Will, South Africa to South Carolina", Its Your World, Winter In America.

Would black music be where it is today without the music and influence of this great man.

RIP and thanks for the many hours of musical pleasure you have bought in to my life.

Death is having one of those days where nothing goes right. From breaking his shoelace to having his bike stolen, things go from bad to worse. Death perseveres to tick victims off his List, yet little does he know what's in store for him.
