My feelings on celebrity deaths and the public's fascination:

"Mickey Mantle don't care about you. Why care about him?"

If you don't know who he is, a good way to explain him would be...........He is the DJ that every real dj or musician hates! sucks someone died but I don't think his so called talents will be missed.

you obviously have no idea who he is. you're calling him not a real dj? please explain. your naivety is amazing

his talents paved the way for dj's to be who we are today. he inspired every single DJ out there today and took risks in playing new music when it wasn't "in." he played music b/c it was good music not just bc it was popular. he opened the door for DJ's to be mainstream and showcased all forms of music.

read this blog from ?uestlove of the roots, http://www.okayplayer.com/stories/mu...-200908308754/ it highlights his true influence in this game.

DJ AM and his talents will forever be missed. HE IS THE DJ'S DJ!

I wonder if it had anything to do with the airplane crash and him being freaked/depressed about it?


I know I'd be really f'ed up if I jumped out of a crashing plane and survived and only one other person from the crew of 6... That would HELLA screw with me. That's beyond cheating death x 1000

I hope it wasn't drugs, a sad way to go. How young was he?
