the thing is most drugs can kill you if you take them the 'wrong' way
or just if you get hit with bad luck/a bad batch

just a reminder to never take this ish for granted

i don't agree, teklife stuff was starting to sound a bit formulaic and unimaginative to me in the last releases, not sure how teklife crew are going to do now whitout their main brain...
he looked like a great dude, i always laughed with the faces he pulled during his sets :( :( :( :( :corncry: :corncry: :corncry: :rashad:
I think Teklife's there to get his homies' names out. But compare his more recent EPs and album with his pre-international fame shit and how he progressed after 'Itz Not Right'.

Rashad brought footwork to the masses and he gave it UK appeal without watering it down. I'm curious how the scene will go on

Unbelievably sad news. Selfishly glad I got to catch him a couple of times but genuinely saddened by this. RIP.

Sad news.. Never was much of a footwork fan, but I've seen him and Spinn close a festival
once and it went off.

Out of the blue really.

The original cutout emoticon more closely reflects his production style, sorry benny.

And to murky, it may be helpful for people to know what drugs he took, and how he took them to avoid the same fate. Notice it was agent asking that. Imo agent may share the same fate if he continues with the same casual, heroic attitude towards drug use.
