reminisce over you

Damn went to go check my man Goldies blog JUNGLEJEM45 and realized that he had a picture of my late great homie Jax and Binkis Recs fam as his heading. I glimpsed and saw myself in the background wit my red fitted on from an appearance I made to spit a verse to the song we dedicated to my man DJ Ox who passed a few years ago. Looking at this flick took me back to that night and how much fun we had during that set. It also brought back the realization that the end of an era has come with Jax's untimely passing. Looking at this picture made me realize and feel thankful that I was a part of this movement here in ATL of trying to keep the raw essence of our culture alive. I also have to do my part to keep it maintaining. Even amongst the current trendy fake dudes who never lived it and the cats who had connections with some certain "circuits" and feel that they can do this too(well since they got the connections why not, it don't matter about skills).

Well this year. I got an agenda too and that's to shut that shit down and maintain the real blue label standard. That's word to Jax.

Rest In Peace Jax

Man...................The news still hitting me,the shock,just imbalanced, right now. I came in today feeling charged and hopeful. Then I get that abnormal early morning call and the words "you heard about Jax?"

Nah

"He passed last night"

NO

"Yeah"

I've known Jax for about 10 yrs. Always in the scene. I've had good experiences and have worked with him on various different things. Broke bread, shared common bonds....................Me and him were the same age.

It's messed up because from our last convo, we were planning on doing more work together in the future. Definitely a staple of the scene and a real dude. I may go in more later, but right now I gotta soak it all in. Still in shock at how one day you're here and the next your gone. TAKE NOTHING OR NO ONE FOR Granted. I am thankful for even knowing this cat and really building.
