Heaven just got a little funkier - RIP, Rick James
I was pretty bummed to learn this morning when I checked my mail to learn that Rick James had died. Being in the media, my compatriots and I so often get labeled as being desensitized to this type of thing, but I was genuinely saddened by it.
He made good music, which I appreciated, and his appearance/skits on Chappelle's Show introduced his unique personality to a new generation of people.
Rest in peace, bro.
