Its funny how mr magics death only get 3 comments… but DJ AM gets more response from readers and comments… Not to make light of DJ AM’s death which was truly horrible… but Mr. Magic pioneered the first rap radio show… he kinda laid the foundation for mainstream hip hop as we know it today… Im not that old (28) but I can still appreciate his legacy… I hope more people realize who he was..
