I was going to post this in the rap music thread below this one, but I feel it deserves its own thread.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-Dubble
I received some terrible news the other day, that my favorite rapper, E-Dubble, passed away last month. He was only 34.
His death was caused by an "aggressive infection that spread throughout his whole body.

This could not have happened to a better person. E-Dub personally signed and wrote a personal note in both of the CDs I bough from him and frequently responded to fans twitter and facebook messages. (including mine) I feel like a close friend has passed away.
His lyrics were not those of a typical rapper. They were almost "anti-rap" in a way.
A mega talented artist, he released a new song every week for a whole year, in a project called "Freestyle Fridays"
It is in this series of songs where his personality shined. Most of these songs have an intro and/or outro, that showcased his wonderful personality.
I will add a link to a playlist of all the Freestyle Fridays at the end of the post.
I advise everyone, even if you didn't like some of the videos I posted, to check out his youtube channel.
There is something for everyone there. Hundreds of songs. Some samples, some with original production, some with live bands supplying the music.
Some fast and tough, some slow and melodic. Like I said, spend some time and check it out, you will become a fan.
Not to be corny, but his music has been the soundtrack to my life for the past few years and I am very sad he's gone. He changed my life for the better with his music.
Even my girlfriend, who hates rap, likes most of his music. Same with my friends who hate rap.
To honor his life, I would like to post a couple of my favorite songs.
Please, take a listen and
honor his memory.
ARCADE
DOWN
BIG SHIPS
DEVIL IS A LIE
ROBOTS CAN'T DRINK
REST IN PEACE BIG GUY
You will be truly missed.
Here is a link to a youtube playlist of most of the Freestyle Fridays. They are out of order and missing a few songs, but still great.
