RIP Nipsey Hussle
"In our culture, there's a narrative that says, 'Follow the athletes, follow the entertainers,'" "That's cool, but there should be something that says, 'Follow Elon Musk, follow Zuckerberg.' I think that with me being influential as an artist and young and coming from the inner city, it makes sense for me to be one of the people that's waving that flag."
“For the first time, Samiel saw the gunshot wound on the back of his brother’s head. He started praying.”

My God. Why this man had to take Nipsey’s life like this, I will never understand. But I know his hood will never let his legacy fade. https://t.co/5k1nnj5o14
That solo was inspiration for famous serbian "country" song:
Variety said:Rutger Hauer, the versatile Dutch leading man of the ’70s who went on star in the 1982 'Blade Runner' as Roy Batty, died July 19 at his home in the Netherlands after a short illness. He was 75.
Hauer’s agent, Steve Kenis, confirmed the news and said that Hauer’s funeral was held Wednesday.
His most cherished performance came in a film that was a resounding flop on its original release. In 1982, he portrayed the murderous yet soulful Roy Batty, leader of a gang of outlaw replicants, opposite Harrison Ford in Ridley Scott’s sci-fi noir opus 'Blade Runner.' The picture became a widely influential cult favorite, and Batty proved to be Hauer’s most indelible role.
Toni Morrison was a towering intellect, a brilliant scribe of our nation’s complex stories, a heartbreaking journalist of our deepest desires, and a groundbreaking author who destroyed precepts, walls and those who dared underestimate her capacity. Rest well and in peace. pic.twitter.com/nMkxXRtEoz

RIP Ginger Baker. This one strikes close to home. I was a huge Cream fan "back in the day."
