Rock will never be able to lay a glove on rap/hip-hop for folks dying relatively young.

This one hurts. DU was a huge part of my childhood. I've held fast in my belief that Sex Packets is a masterpiece and the best rap record I've ever listened to. I spin it still, and it never grows old. DU brought melody and music to their songs along with fun, upbeat lyrics and persona. Shock G was brilliant.

I kept trying to think of the movie they were in to go find the gif, and it escaped me. What a weird, strange yet wild trip that movie was. I still don't know if I like it or not

I still blast it, and I almost as old as he was. Some classic lines in that one.

Back when rap music was still fun.

RIP Humpty

RIP, Humpty. A true original.

I wonder if they ever found a home for his head.

Unsubstantiated as of now, but I'm hearing rumors that he liked his oatmeal lumpy
