I’m not gonna act like I’m tight with Shaolin Park or anything, but I have been supporting their music for awhile now with the site and with our collab shirt. I just found out today that Guap passed away. This was one of the last – if not the last – tracks that got put out by him. The dude was dope as a lyricist and obviously taken too early.
Life, man. Everyone has got to know that no matter what ups and downs you got going on in your life – love, success, family, failure – it can all come to an end in the blink of an eye. I suppose all we can really do is keep it moving and not dwell on bullshit because that abrupt end is coming for us all, whether we like it or not. If you’re feeling bummed by this post, don’t be. Just live your life and enjoy every fucking second you got on this ridiculous planet with the people you love. R.I.P. Guap of Shaolin Park.
It feels extra corny to post this, but I must, for you Internet. Enjoy this great post of 50 Fine Photos Of Women Up In Smoke today by the good folks at Complex (via Mz. Rio) … also check out some 420 vids courtesy of Confusion at Pigeons & Planes. Be safe World !
Chuuwee / CaliGraphi / Amalgam Digital just dropped Chuu’s latest video off of the upcoming Crown Me King project that’s set to drop April 24th. If you don’t know what West Francia is, click here and find out.
