All of the truly talented entertainers are leaving and there are so few capable of carrying on where they left off. RIP
He was in the video for Stevie Wonder's most under rated song "Go Home". Fine actor. This short clip doesn't do him justice. Show the one where he is explaining the Sarge's hate for CJ in A Soldier's Story. That was top notch. RIP.
