RIP Coolio

Quote:
Coolio, the rapper who was among hip-hop's biggest names of the 1990s with hits including Gangsta's Paradise and Fantastic Voyage, died Wednesday at age 59, his manager said.

Coolio, whose legal name was Artis Leon Ivey Jr., died at the Los Angeles home of a friend, longtime manager Jarez Posey told The Associated Press. The cause was not immediately clear.

Coolio won a Grammy for best solo rap performance for Gangsta's Paradise, the 1995 hit from the soundtrack of the Michelle Pfeiffer film Dangerous Minds that sampled Stevie Wonder's 1976 song Pastime Paradise. He was nominated for five other Grammys during his career.
Wishing Coolio a safe journey in the valley of the shadow of death. He didn’t know if he’d see 24 and made it to 59. Guess he looked at his life again and realized there was a lot more left. Still passed too young.

RIP to a 90’s legend.

That's just simply aging and it's inevitable. I kind of thought about this a while back, but I assume most of us in here are in our 30-40's. Maybe some are even close to 50. A lot of our childhood "heroes" are probably around that age now where health is taking a dive.

Assuming we all live a relatively long life, almost every celebrity that we've known that's a generation (or more) older will kick the bucket before us, one by one. And we'll all eventually hear about each one in the news.

But of course, the longer you live, the more you'll be around just to hear others dying in general, older or younger.

Wow... didn't think he'd go so young. RIP to a man I still listen to quite often. A true 90's legend.
