The recent situation with the homie wood has been really fuckin with me since i found out thursday night. When we lose a loved one the pain never really goes away....you just adapt and you learn to shove the hurt somewhere back in your mind and try not to deal with it. for some it's easier then others....we all deal with pain in different ways. it's harder for me to hide the pain when not a day goes by that I don't think about those who have influenced me in my life in some way that are no longer with us. I think about speedy everyday...I think about my OG's that I've had to see buried...I'm still tryin to deal with losing my young homie flaco recently...and now this.
Wood was one of the very, very few individuals who I can actually say that I truly respected...I owe my name in this rap game to him. he gave me a shot when he put me on northern expozure 4 back when I was just a homie tryin to be heard. since that day I kept in contact with him on a regular basis and anytime I had a question about anything related to the music bizz he was the first one I called. and he was always there to break it down to me. when I was forced to have to find a home for my pit puppy muggz...I called him and he came all the way down from the 530 to help me out and give muggz a home. That might not sound like a big deal but my family loved that puppy and to know that a fellow homie was able to take him in and love him and take care of him meant a lot to us.He always called checkin in lettin us know muggz was doin good and to let us know we can always go visit. I was able to to spend time in the east co co studio when wood invited me to come record my track for NE7. me and my wife headed out to his spot and I was in the lab with wood for over 8 hours just kickin back and recording...talking..drinkin...just doin what homeboys do. he was a complete professional when it came down to making that music. he gave me insight and his opinions while recording "it's been a long road" and i feel to this day that is the tightest track i have ever recorded. I can't even begin to explain all the topics and subjects we talked about that day...all I know is that when we left and headed back to the bay...I had an all new and complete respect for that homeboy.He always showed love to me and my family,I will always remember him as one solid,coo ass homeboy. I can only imagine what his family and closest homies are goin through right now...cause I know the pain I'm feelin right now is deep.
I just wanted to say a lil somethin in regards to the homeboys passing....may he rest in paradise along side every other fallin homie. and like every other legend in this rap game his music will live forever.
