REST IN PEACE

JAMESETTA HAWKINS AKA 'ETTA JAMES'

JANUARY 25, 1938 - JANUARY 20, 2012

According to E! the late R&B great Etta James born Jamesetta Hawkins has succumb to leukemia in Southern California's Riverside Community Hospital. Diagnosed as terminally ill by a doctor two weeks prior the late James was able to be surrounded by the comfort of husband Artis Mills and sons. The singer most notably known for her hit "At Last" was in more recent times known for her minute dismay in Beyonce singing this same hit at the Obama inaugural ceremony. Nothing went past this except from kind words from James in regards to the talent of today's generation. Never a let down Etta James fought her tiny way to 73 years old, now that's a blessing. May you rest in peace Etta James.

Tupac Shakur Remembered on #nextinshow [Playlist]

Tupac not only rapped he lead the integration process of hip-hop into the modern culture. Without Tupac hip-hop perhaps wouldn't be seen as an art for the poetic and symbolism that is behind the lyric and word play in this genre. Hey, Brenda might still be having babies but at least she's a little more smart and if she is more than likely it's blamed less on manipulation, most decisions in America are free will now-a-days aren't they? One could argue, but there's one thing that we all can agree on i'm sure and that fact is Tupac Shakur pioneered this movement and through him an array of ethnic groups, communities and countries have come together in his name to practice peace, art and unification. Rest In Peace Tupac Amaru Shakur
