I haven't posted in this thread yet. Only the one in the Booth. I really do feel like I lost a friend. It might sound corny but the Mobb was part of the soundtrack to my life for much of my teens and 20s. Did a lot of dirt and running the streets to that music. Went thru so many D batteries playing the Mobb when we used to sell weed on the strip. It was the perfect theme music for riding around Baltimore back then. This was a Mobb Deep town. No disrespect to Sean Price, Phife, Guru, etc. But what makes his death so important is that he's the first true hip hop legend to die while already being considered a legend. Others like Big and Pac weren't considered that until after their deaths. We lost a vet of the game and a cornerstone of east coast hip hop

True. I just remember the Mobb being instrumental to setting that NY street swag NY done lost. Lost Boys, Orginal Gun Clappaz, RR, etc in that era. "for every rhyme I write its 25 to life" being my top 3 all time best lyrics, next to "it ain't where you from its where you at..." RIP big homie
