I guess Detox ended up a little late in this case.

You think Dr. Dre was trying to tell his kid something?

What a role model.

Yea, obviously this is going to cause a few more delays. I'm looking forward to it though.

I think it's probably obvious that he ODed. What else would the rich son of a prominent rapper die from at 20 years?

Ethics and common courtesy. It shows your disrespect for humans in general.

No, but I still have manners.

Nah, I have alot respect for life, but I'm not about to cry over some rich kid that died.
I'll have respect for soldiers and those who contribute to society, but just because this kid is famous by association doesn't mean he's any better than the tons of 20 year olds that die every day from doing dumb stuff. He had a chance to make it big unlike most of those kids, and he decided to party til he died. I'd feel the same way if Paris Hilton died.
The only ones I feel sorry for here are his parents, but maybe they are partially at fault as well.
RIP gangsta.
