RIP Trugoy The Dove From De La Soul


De La Soul rapper David "Trugoy" Jolicoeur aka, Plug2 aka, Dave has passed away at age 54...





Four years ago De La Soul asked fans not to stream their music because of a one-sided deal with Tommy Boy Records [click here if you missed that]. 

The issue was resolved just last month.

Black people especially Black men dying off at an alarming rate and folks wanna make lifestyle changes when it's almost too late. My people: live clean, eat right, stay active, don't fall if you over 50, avoid toxic people and find a way to relieve stress every day.

@9:20 Same here ('68 baby/Class of '86). Just a little over a year ago, I decided to start seeing a licensed practitioner regularly after dealing with a chronic illness. For years, I hated going to the doc like a lot of people but it is paying off.

This hit hard for several reasons. First, Three Feet High and Rising is one of the best hip-hop albums period. The other thing was that I strayed from my diet big time yesterday. My dude wanted Denny's and I got something that should've been called a salt sandwich that I couldn't finish. The minute I got home, I guzzled down a big can of coconut water and almost a liter of regular water. I'm still going to the restroom but I feel better not holding on to all that sodium.

@2:09 I quit adding salt to anything. I use non-sodium spices and ginger & turmeric dishes. Lots of stir fry dishes with tons of veggies. Honestly the last two months I have been horrible, but, I am getting more focused. More water. No drinking and remove soft drinks and back to body armour drinks. 3 Feet High was EPIC. This really was a wakeup for me
