RIP TO ONE OF THE ALL-TIME SOUL GREATS OF OUR GENERATION

I have a lot of fond memories associated with DeAngelo debut, just want to share in honor of his passing...

I was a huge fan of his debut album and have a lot of memories attached to those days.  One of the best nights of my life and first big experiences with girls as a 13 year old happened while bumping his music like “Brown Sugar” and also “Lady” was a banger.  But “Brown Sugar” was a huge breakthru, and one of the best nights of my life sneaking out to meet girls in the neighborhood fall of 95’ and that track “Brown Sugar” had just broken thru.

And I had about 5 big incidents of fights at school—and one big one was in 8th grade in front of the entire gym class I got my ass beat by this black guy in the locker room.  All because I beat him in a game of one on one (I was in my basketball 🏀 and popularity prime of my life at the time) and he lost the bet so he had to give me a Bone CD but he welched on the bet (and later ended up giving me a clean version of Deangelo’s debut and 5 bucks and we called it even)

But before we’d called it even I said I couldn’t just let him Welch on his bet and get away with it so I told my best friend from 7th grade I’d start a fight with this black in the locker room and then once it started my friend was supposed to jump in and break it up — well I started the fight and my friend never broke it up and I ended up on the ground in front of everyone in a submission hold — and had to punk out with dudes fist 👊 cocked ready to fire on me if I didn’t punk out and say I’d had enough…

Everyone left and I was trying to like fix up my face alone in the locker room and my new homie hung back to check on me and my 7th grade homie and I never were friends again after that and this dude became my ride or die homie and we had all those great nights out in the neighborhood meeting girls over at his house.

It was the prime of my life so even when something bad happened it turned out good—people respected me that I even stepped to this dude and we made amends and became friends and he gave me the Deangelo cd…

And then the story has a crazy ending years later at age 19 I’d converted to Islam right before I went out to hang with Siavash (Doggystylin of the forum) and Muslim cats out in Cali my life was on the outs and I was working night shift at target and guess who was working side by side with me?? This black kid that beat my ass in 8th grade gym class!  But here’s the crazy part… I had converted to Islam but was doing it incognito at that point I didn’t really come out fully in public till I moved to LA.  Well this cats last name was Nichols so just a regular name.

Well one day we are rolling around bumping Kurupts Space Boogie and Nate Dogg “Friends.. how many of us have them…” cause we shared a mutual love for west coast rap and he’s saying he’s always wanted a ride or die homie and I break the news that I’m moving to Cali and going to Hajj in Mecca and that I’ve been wanting to change my life and be a Muslim.  I thought he laugh in my face—well he pulls out his wallet and shows me his drivers liscense and it turns out his middle name is Muhammad!!   His parents were divorced but his biological dad in LA is a Muslim convert who gave him the middle name Muhammad!

Crazy story and all goes back to Deangelo — RIP

Fam the USB's have officially sold out but you can still get projects individually. All projects will come with the El Debarge song.

Just got the delivery in England.

The tape USB is a nice touch.
