Yeah Pac would be 34 now and be considered ol' school, it's amazing how many peeps in hip-hop we lost over the years: Jam Master Jay, Left Eye, and Aaliyah are a few others that we didn't mention, if all them were alive still a lot of talentless artists wouldn't be signed.

It's something to think about when U look at how all these artists died. We're yet to hear a hip hop artist die of old age. Hip hop is still a very young music genre. JMJ died in a shooting at Quad Recording Studios (Pac may have in '94, but he survived), Aaliyah died in a plane crash, Left Eye died in a car accident (right?), Big L was shot (right?), Easy-E died of AIDS, Pac and BIG died in drive-by-car shootings, Pun died from health problems, and I know there's more worth mentioning.
