R.I.P NUJABES

1974-2010
Today terrible news hit the fans: legendary producer Nujabes died in a fatal car accident. Although people were hoping for a hoax, the news got confirmed by Hydeout Productions (Japanese source) and friend/collegue Shing02. Nujabes died at the age of 36.

“We deeply regret the loss of a unique talent and a close friend. Through his soulful music, Nujabes has touched so many people around the world, even beyond his dreams. It continued to amaze me how young listeners of all backgrounds learned of his enigmatic name, and expressed support for his music,” says Shing02 in a statement.

Legend
I am not exaggerating when I say Nujabes is a true legend. He introduced me to Japanese and jazzy Hip Hop with ‘Modal Soul‘, still a classic in my eyes. This is a big loss for music, but I am sure his music will live forever. We wish his family, friends and close ones all the best. Now let’s pay hommage to this lost legend by listening to his incredible music. Jun Seba, R.I.P.
his music was introduced to me by my girlfriend(monica), since then i have been listening to his music while i paint or even when I'm driving.
