Roy C Hammond, creator of "Impeach the President", a funk track that was a building block of early hip-hop and has been sampled by *everyone*, has died
I happened across this track recently, but had no idea that the drums had been sampled over 600 times and has been used by a variety of artists. Really cool recent interview with him

"If you want to hear a song about impeaching a president, you have a lot of options: Flo Rida, Mick Jagger, Freddie Gibbs, Eazy-E, Alanis Morissette. Or you could just go to the source that all those artists have sampled, the obscure funk song that started it all back in 1973, called “Impeach the President.”

Glad that Yada is still with us!
Just a small Ayahuasca journey with gw and Walky, but everyone is in good spirits.

Trump wins . . . he replaces Ginsburg. Thomas and Alito and Roberts retire. Trump replaces them. Everything is overturned. Everything is illegal forever. Civil war breaks out. Trump nukes his own country.
The, end.
