yannis D Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 It's very sad. Very young. Actually i was more into their instrumental albums - "the in sound from way out" and the second one (don't remember the title). It's a huge loss for the hip hop community (and i believe NYC) Be grateful for what you've got - a Nord, a laptop and two hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Dan Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I didn't realize he had throat cancer. When I heard he passed, I figured the sheriff finally caught up to him for what he did to his daughter.

Aidan Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 It was salivary gland cancer actually. This bit of news had particular resonance for me as it was the same cancer I was diagnosed with 7 years ago. Made me realise I'm very lucky to be alive. RIP.

RIP MCA. Respect. Instrumentation is meaningless - a song either stands on its own merit, or it requires bells and whistles to cover its lack of adequacy, much less quality. - kanker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoahZark Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 D-Bon, It was a tribute to someone who just died. A little somberness in tone seemed perfectly appropriate to me. If you disagree, more power to you. Noah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
