What Shaun King is obviously saying is that Nas & Hov at an older age had a crispier lineup than MLK.

I think Shaun King is saying if Jay died at Dr. King’s age his last album would’ve been American Gangster American Gangster = Dream Speech

I'm trying to figure out why Shaun King isn't acknowledging the real issue here: today is Young Dro's birthday.

Think on this. It's cold outside. I come inside where the heat is on. I get warm.

I'm 30 and Jimi Hendrix was 27 when he died. RT to save a whale.
