John Ruddy was a true renaissance man & #JCoriginal.
Those who die old are made of the past. Thinking of them, one thinks of what they have done. Thinking of you and your loved ones, one thinks of what was yet to come. You were, and you will remain, made up of possibilities.

#JerseyCity's #PMDawn merged hip-hop, pop, R&B, & sampled Top 40 hits. Criticized for not being hard, #PrinceBe pioneered sounds that now dominate hip-hop. This song is pure summer. Prince Be died June 17, 2016. Set adrift on memory bliss of you.
