Rest in peace :mjcry:

I been on hip hop message boards going back to all hip hop. Wasn't as active on there or on SOHH. Y'all are truly like a family to me.

We gotta live life to the fullest and do what makes us happy. Life definitely ain't easy. None of us are promised tomorrow. Make sure you tell your loved ones you love them. Soon enough, all you'll have is memories.

I think it would be a good idea to put the gofundme link on the 1st post if it wasn't already done.

First off, RIP MelYeah, Orange all day breh! :salute:

@Rell Lauren, @Loose you guys went to SU, what class?
I was Melyeah's year (96'), we lived in the same Freshman dorm. He was a super nerd when being a nerd had no ironic appeal. lol But like @NYC Rebel said dude was from the hood for real for real. Interesting story about how he impacted my life when I first met him:

Syracuse guarantees housing for Freshman, and we were in the only all Freshman dorm together but they were short on space and he had to live in this common room that was converted into a 4 bedroom when we first got there. Well, one Friday night within like the first couple of weeks of college heads were hanging out and maybe watching a movie in his room since it was so big. I am from a mostly Black town but I had it good compared to him, my Dad was a business owner and we lived in 4 bedroom house since I was like 10. But I guess because of that I had a need to be 'hood' or pretend to be more "street' than I actually was. And I actually did a lot of dumb shyt trying to prove myself in that regard. Anyway, you know how people bring pixs from home with them and he had a photo album with him taking pics with his people in this public housing apartment/hallway. I was looking through it and was surprised someone so nerdy was from the projects and I felt feelings of jealousy rising up in me. But I then came to my senses somewhat and realized how ass backwards my feelings were. It was strange and actually kinda started me rethinking my need to be respected in that regard. I mean I did go on to still be like that for years actually. But meeting him and seeing where he was from and how he at the time I thought acted opposite of that got me thinking about the error of my ways. Anyway, it's just strange what you remember most about a person and how benign interactions still make a big impact. That's life I guess.
We never hung out or even talked much after those Freshman introductions and yeah we were on SOHH and acknowledged we knew each other but only interacted once in awhile. But he was without even trying, pivotal to my upbringing. RIP brother.
