I FIRST HEARD PRETTY BLACK ON THE FIRST DOPEGAME MIXTAPE IN 2004 AND I WAS IMEDIATELY IMPRESSED WITH HIS SKILLS AND HAVE BEEN A FAN EVER SINCE. I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO HIS NEW ALBUM I HOPE IT STILL DROPS.

no offense to the dead but i thought p black was weak on the mic....i was talkin to the homie about that the other day, just makin smalltalk about what bay rappers (i know he from chi) i wasnt feeling, then boom, the niggas dead...made me feel like an asshole, you know....makes me wonder if i was online hating on a nigga that at the same time, in another town, he was getting his life taken by another hater...i believe in karma so it sucks to think i harbored any negativity toward the man, even if it was his music... in his last days.

the thought of a child losing his son is heartbreaking..I hope in the pursuit of getting his cash he left something for his little man...and i know alot of people, when that news of a kid coming happens...they dont see no way else to get it but in the streets...and then theyre locked or dead and the effort is wasted...i guess its sad both ways...for the person pretty black might have violated and for the retaliation...were fighting over money with white peoples faces on it and risking lives for chains that africans risked their lives to produce...ii wonder fi africans knew we were dying to wear what they were dying to find, would they still search for diamonds? probably. i guess being its the only way they know how to get paid. maybe im bugging but i hope one day this street shit isnt so mesmerizing to us young adults, and we go back to the african medallions and uplifting our communities and taking a full fledged interest in our families, especially the children.

sorry for ranting and prayers go out to his family...it hurts to see another black mans life taken whether i liked his music or not and i feel hurt personally to see rap music and us as a certain culture (rap music) of people constantly killed over money or drugs..

seems like some of us are just comfortable in our ruts though...i remember when dude said on here hed do 100 years in jail to take wax's life...over a comment....just the ridiculousness of that made alot of people on here go "youd risk your life over that?" but i guess you have to be in the mind of the person to get it...and maybe thats how he lived his life...all or nothing....

Rest in peace.....

This is how i will always remember Pretty Black. we talked the day his lil man was born and he was so excited. seeing this pic breaks my heart knowing that his son will grow up without him, just stories and dreams of what should of been. that's a beautiful tribute pic, good job, i think they should hand these out at his funeral


Made this earlier, not a lot of good quality pics of him available online:
