D’Angelo, 8 Years Later…

SPIN Magazines’ (Aug ‘08) article featuring the tragic story of D’Angelo (as told by some of his closest friends) is a MUST READ for all who appreciate his talent and miss his presence as much as I do…


“Thanks to ‘that’ video, D’Angelo was poised for superstardom, and the R & B Renaissance he led was about to change the world. Instead, he fell into a spiral of substance abuse and arrests and virtually disappeared. Eight years later, his friends and colleagues reveal where he’s been and what it’s going to take to bring him back.”

Pay Day for Lt.”Po-Po Ne-gar-o” Approaches…

Yeah so, presently in the Land of Purple Rain…

Looks like my favorite officer of the law (insert sarcasm here), “Po-Po Ne-gar-o” , a main character in my short story “Get The F*ck Out Mah Face” (a MUST read) is about to be gettin’ paid over here in the fair city of Minneapolis. I won’t point the Lieutenant out directly, just take a wild guess. *lol*

Side Note: Not sure why the photo is spotted and fuzzy. The Star Tribune is falling off . Also, something is missing from the picture…oh, I know… Cigars! They should all have a cigar…much more telling after a hard day of battling for “justice!” *lol*
