Damn, R.I.P.

At least he chose to do music, so we got all those classics.
Charlie, lost his life right in front of the party...

Damn, Its almost to the point where I fear coming on this forum because every other day a west-coast artist has passed away.
RIP DJ Crazy Toones, as much a part of those great WC records as WC was and a super-talented DJ.

Crazy Toones did his dope DJ thang for Maad Circle, Lench Mob Records and Westside Connection, R.I.P.

Ain't A Damn Thang Changed album is a icon is West Coast Music . ( for me )

Yeah I only got that album last year but it became an instant classic to me.
I miss that part of rap where you'd have a DJ as an integral part of a collective, hip-hop needs to go back to that.  The scratches and samples always make a record fun to listen to like Crazy Toones did.
