Murs

Man, people really are united in the face of death: MURS - I Miss Mikey

Man, people really are united in the face of death: MURS - I Miss MikeyMichael Larsen, aka Eyedea or Oliver Hart, died in 2010 in his sleep. The St. Paul,Minnesota rapper was highly respected for his musical traits, albums, poetry and freestyles.

In this song, Murs is paying tribute to his friend, and it's exactly what people like Red Cafe, Fabolous, Meek Mill have been doing since rapper Chinx got killed on this May the 17th.

People coalesce in the face of death and pain. That's a wonderful thing to see. Respect for those who not only weep a dying friend, but a dying man in general. Respect for those who cry a departed human being, instead of just a departed family member.

We believe Meek Mills really is sorry for his lost brother, but saying stuff like "And the hood gotta stop glorifying suckas that kill good people!" over Twitter only shows how deeply inconsiderate you are towards human beings in general. So what? "The hood gotta stop glorifying suckas that kill" wasn't enough?! It's ok to kill men, as long as you don't kill good people? Such semantic slips get 13.000 retweets. Just think about it!
