I'll always remember finding out about Aaliyah's death thru De La Soul as they performed at back-to-school campus event in my 1st yr at NCSU––stopping mid set to deliver the news to us all. They were one of my all-time favorite groups, which would inspire much of my artwork for music in the years that followed. Now learning about the death of Trugoy the Dove aka Plug Two right before De La's big moment in having their back catalog finally getting released for streaming is just as heartbreaking #RIPDave
