  1. Wonder how he passed..43 is extremely young to go…shit make me wanna slow down smoking and drinking real talk

    • Truly a shame that he passed so young man. I loved those early Boot Camp albums. True classics. Sean Price was continuing to hold it down too. Loved his integrity. Never sold out the culture.

  2. Damn. this one hittin hard. P was one of my personal favs. That and Rock told me maddddd crazy stories about him that were unbelievably funny as shit…. damn man….

  3. People like P don’t die man. They just move to Cuba. Cuz I don’t think I can process this one.
