    His music wasn't in my wheelhouse but a true talent. RIP...

    Passing away peacefully at 53 sounds suspicious though.

    To respect someone in death is to respect someone in life. Just because you die does one earn respect.

    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    But you do earn death for death is the wages of sin
