It saddens me to continuously loose artists that shaped our youth, especially when they are so young. Shock G was always been a standout artist and producer with heavy ties to the P-Funk. It’s rumored he was a very kind and a compassionate human, see the post from @kidcapri101 for a good story.

I’m grateful to have witnessed your musical gift in real time. Rest easy Gregory Jacobs aka Shock G, the one who put the satin on...
