"Fall In Love"

As we lay another soldier to rest, I bow my head to another brother in arms. Rest in peace to Baatin of Slum Village. I heard the news of his death a few days ago and was stunned as I was listening to Same Cookes "Long time coming" on the radio. I was truly saddened and still am as if I knew the brother in real life, I really only knew him through his music...however the music he made touched me. Fantastic: Vol 2 is one of my favorite hip hop albums of all times. It was when I first heard it and it will always be. "Fall in Love" is definitely one of my favorite songs of all times too! I remember the summer when i first got that cd. I had a little blue car with the cd hook up in the tape player and I swear I'd play that cd thin with that track on repeat. It always touched me some kind of way. I don't know if it was the dilla drums, the singing on the chorus or the ill melodic lyrics kicked by SV. Who knows, all I know is that record had a special place in my heart. Its a shame that two of the creators of such a great sound are no longer with us. Man! R.I.P Baatin and thanks for your contribution to hip hop music. Tell Dilla I said hello, and I'll be keeping the torch lit. I hope you all can see me from the heavens. I salute you.
