Wow, that's crazy. Just after Dave Chappelle kinda brought him back from relative obscurity, kinda like Tarantino did with Travolta. They're getting ready to make a movie about his life, people all over are talking about him. Shitty.

Yes, cocaine comes from natural ingredients, at least partially.
Who remembers his interview on O+A? That was classic. That was an interview that was scheduled for like one break, but ended up going for like an hour or two.

just think RJ was a great singer...
famous for his songs, had a slight revival when hammer time came out,
and everybody is going to remember him for a bit from Eddie Murphy's brother, that is making fun of his drug addiction, and pompous attitude.

Despite his meteoric rise and recording success, James won only a single Grammy, for co-writing M.C. Hammer's monster hit "U Can't Touch This," a song sampled from James' "Super Freak."
Hammer won a grammy? And Rick James who was 1,000,000% more talented didn't win one for the song the first time around.
There is no justice.

Oxy-moron, no?
I toured as a rodie with P-Funk in 1984, when rick james went into his crack coma, they all laughed there ass's off. Loved him music, but pretty low on the totum pole as a human. RIP super freak.

Natural causes? C'mon - you can't get any more hilarious than that.
This is too bad - now he won't be able to provide any commentary for the forthcoming Dave Chappelle Rick James biopic......but at least his passing will ensure that the biopic likely will get made now.

I listened to and enjoyed his music a bunch... i had lent a tape and my new portable Pioneer stereo to one of my friends who was taking his new girlfriend to the hotel for the first time... Damn did he love that tape, he talked to me a few days later and knew the names of almost all the songs...
that's what I'm about, spreading the Funk and the Love...

Now I can listen to something OTHER then Super Freak this weekend.

Locking that woman in his bedroom for a couple days and burning her with his crack pipe is gonna probably bite him in the ass now, karma-wise.
Damn, I love his music, but he was a pretty awful human being.

Flamboyant funk musician Rick James had nine drugs in his system when he died suddenly in August, including cocaine, methamphetamine, valium and vicodin, according to a coroner's report Thursday.
Cocaine's a hell of a drug.....
