RIP practically a lone voice in the 80s - battled demons all his life but never lost his focus on the real issues - very sad he has gone

Can't post links and that innit but love the Jamie xx remix album, We're New Here. But pretty much like most of GSH's work apart from the homophobic shit anyways...

Very sad. I'm happy that he was able to release a new album and be around for uprisings from Egypt live and direct and yes, televised :)

Gil Scott Heron has passed away... but whitey wants to send a man to Mars.

RIP
