Rest In Piece.

Well, just merely 4 days back, we lost another infamous icon in the music industry. DJ AM or also known as "Adam Micheal Goldstein" which is his real name, passed on on 28th Aug 2009 due to accidental drug overdose.

Adam Micheal Goldstein aka DJ AM

Travis Barker/DJ AM - Fix Your Face

He was found dead at his New York City apartment around 5:20pm (NY Time) lying on his apartment floor. Not long ago, DJ AM survived a plane crash with Travis Barker (+44, Blink 182) upon take off in South Carolina which killed 2 of the plane crew members. DJ AM is also known for his contribution & collaborations with Travis Barker, he's also a member of the rock band Crazytown, he also scratched on albums for Papa Roach, Madonna, Will Smith, Shifty & played the sets for Jay-Z's gigs. Overall, his former fiancee was Nicole Richie, yes THE Nicole Richie. He's also the co-owner of the famous club LAX. Well, RIP DJ AM. Your contributions and music will live on with us.

We'll first we went through the phase of Heath Ledger (Damn man, who can pull off playing "The Joker" like he did in Batman? Who can ever? We'll Johnny Depp might come close but then, Ledger's play, it was classic & priceless. It still gives me shivers down my spine everytime i hear the line "Why so serious?!") ,which i still haven't recover from yet.

Heath was a uber performer, an actor with a class of his own and honestly, no one can ever replace his characters he played in every single movie he starred in.

Then there's Bernie Mac's death, like ftw, how many awesome people can we afford to lose in such a short period of time?

Bernie Mac was a comedian like no other, a mainstream comedian with fresh and witty lines which will crack you up in any given day.

We'll Farah Fawcett passed on too recently but it wasn't really an impact to we younger generations cause she was an old-timer (If you want, you can see her in the old super first Charlie's Angels series or movie, i think somewhere in the 70's or 80's while she was still super uber hot with that awesome hairstyle lol) so yeah, nevermind that but well, Fawcett, RIP too.

Moving on, not even days after Fawcett's death, the greatest Legend, The King of Pop, the dude who invented the "Moonwalk", the dude who gave us the incomparable "Thriller" video and the dude who went from black to white but fuck who cares, the late Micheal Jackson passed on.

Micheal Joseph Jackson

Damn this is too much to handle in such a short period of time! Jacko Wacko might had his moments, ups and downs but fuck, honestly i didn't pay any mind to those shit people claimed he did cause i know Jacko, he ain't a paedophile nor gay, he just love kids and he's too shy or busy to get laid. Micheal, your music and the awe of your every performance will live on with us forever. Micheal was a huge part of our lives directly or indirectly, consciously or unconsciously, he's one of the reason of who we are today and what we listen on the radio. Without Micheal, music would just be, uhmm still living in the Yoko Ono roots. Dayumn that'd be a sore.

We'll guys, we've witness alot of causalities and deaths between 2007-2009. We mourn, cry, fill ourselves with emoness and we eventually move on, but somehow or rather we'll still feel the great lost of these great Icons everyday as we come across similarities that will make us ponder upon their resemblance when they lived. RIP to all those we have lost, family, friends, neighbours, role-models and everyone else who has passed on.

Toodles people.
