Baatin was one of the greatest to ever to hold a mic, influencing the entire neo-soul era...people don't really even understand what Detroit Hip Hop means to your favorite artists, going way beyond just J Dilla's contibution...

...is that album ever coming out that he did?

"When I'm on the mic, a nigga throw down his blunt just to hear what we say...up in this bitch..."-Baatin

life always offers you a 2nd chance...it's called tomorrow. use it wisely

With the history of mental illness and drug addiction issues, most people have concluded suicide or O.D.

I'm not sure why someone hasn't come out and said the cause, but perhaps it's because (if it was in fact him taking his own life or overdosing) they fear people will be less sympathetic?
