So apparently DJ Tim buk 2 is dead....


:wtf:


The fourth greatest hip hop DJ in Chicago history and the protege to tone is gone.

I am really hurt by the news and I wish more people talked about it in this thread.
Except it speaks volumes about Chicago not being a great party scene.
since, the era when Tim was tone's protege.


RIP = TIMBUK2 : ONE OF CHICAGO'S GREATEST DJ'S.
FOURTH ALL TIME IN CHICAGO HIPHOP HISTORY

I always wondered how far south they would go to gentrify. I figured, wherever it was, it had to have some sort of valuable resource or rich history. Pullman makes sense as a target.

If we could invest our money in this neighborhood while the property is cheap...:mjcry:

I wouldn't think they would come so far south. They're building that whole foods in englewood too...

No words really needed. You said exactly how I felt. I remember growing up listening to him on the radio in middle/high school

I was there and this kid was playing for adults as twilite tone's protege.
He was amazing and I feel a certain type of way.
All, because when he was getting taken under the wing.
I was well on my way as a protege as well.
Kid was the only new DJ after the old guard of tone, 33, and Jesse rocked.
Personally he was the only good new DJ in the whole city, imo.

Gentrification Watch : Curbed Chicago

Will These New Developments Gentrify Black Neighborhoods?

Will These New Developments Gentrify Black Neighborhoods?

A yr old article..

The development on the LowEnd is the only gentrification Black People should take serious in Chicago.
Its not surrounded by Black Folks like EngleWood...Minutes away from Downtown, Chinatown, The Loop & The Lake

man, if you're white, and considering buying a crib, you should seriously consider the south side. we have just as great of access to downtown, but less traffic, and the cost of housing is significantly less. bronzeville/grand boulevard, oakland all have close proximity to downtown. but those areas are food deserts.

areas like englewood are close as well, and they are getting that whole foods as well. plus they have aldi and multiple food 4 less's and walmart.

you can live like a :king: out south for significantly cheaper. I keep tellin ya'll how I moved recently. stayed south like before, but my new house has EVERY bell and whistle of a north side crib that would hit you for over 500K for waaaaaayyyyy less.

I got 3500 sq ft including the basement, tray ceilings, 2 car garage, 5 br, and 3 full bath. on top of that, I am right off 87th street so it's only 2 blocks for me to walk to the train. and I'm right by walmart and target.
