Quest made statements in the past regarding many of our rnb artists passing away way to young. Ive read he stated that some of it was due to trying to keep running away from that poverty level once success is gained, as it adds stress to ones grind. Not sure of THAT’S the reason, I mean it probably is part of it but look at many of these cats dying so soon. Heavy D, Kashiff, Mike, Whitney, Maurice (I know he had a diseases but still), Prince, Vesta. Im not sure if it's recency factor at play or confirmtion bias. And these are just some of the celebrities, and are celebrities. But Im sure the regular folks of ours are dying by the thousands prematurely. Living in racists societies, keeping up with the Joneses, grinding etc all plays a part. Diet as well. Listening to that Searching For Stoney Jackson cd there’s that one song about eating vegetarian or something and its badass but did get me to thinkin..we be eating like shit. But is a change in all of that going to help. Some of us are getting to that age where folks are fallin off. It’s a crisis that’s unspoken of lately. Nevermind the police shootings, this shit is happening like a thief in the night.

Thoughts?
