Today, I have very somber news for the international hip hop community, especially fans of the independent hip hop scene, and those who have followed my career.

It has been announced that Jun Seba, aka Nujabes, Japanese hip hop producer extraordinaire, passed away late February. Official statement from the label (in Japanese) here:
http://hydeout.net/hydeout/2010/03/_hydeoutproductions.html

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. He was a mysterious character to most as he avoided the public limelight, rarely conducted interviews, so only a few got to know the man behind the signature production. Yet it continued to amaze me how young listeners of all backgrounds learned of his enigmatic name, and expressed support for his music.

As I write now from Japan, I had been leaving him messages the past couple of weeks, trying to get in the studio together, so the news could not have come any more unexpected. Even last week, I passed by his house and called him thinking he was still home.

I met Nujabes around 2000 and as an upcoming MC, I was fortunate to work on tracks such as Battlecry, F.I.L.O, Luv(sic) parts 1, 2 and 3. We had been working on the next trilogy of Luv(sic) over the past year (which we're determined to see through). The last time we talked in January, Nujabes emailed me to wish Jeff Resurreccion, a 19-year old beatboxer who had just passed way from cancer, his heartfelt condolences.

While we continue to respect the privacy of his family, we will work to preserve his legacy, and pay tribute to the body of work, some unreleased, that he has left for us to enjoy. Jun Seba will be dearly missed by his family, friends, colleagues, and fans worldwide.

It's always sad when a well-known person dies. As far as his music goes, I'd prefer it without the hip-hop beat. He had some great arrangements though.
If you're going to make a poor argument, at least make it a good, well-grounded poor argument.

Well-known? I've never heard of this guy before he died. Now he's dead and suddenly everyone likes his music.

yeah i'm basically on the same page as devin

he composed the music for samurai champloo (or atleast most of it?? some of it??) so there is a pretty okay reason for him to be relatively well-known and liked!!

Come on, Barack. Even I knew about Nujabes before this (like 2008 or something).
You're Black! He did hip-hop! You should know about him!!!

But he wasn't actually well-known until he died and suddenly he's everywhere.

I'm listening to some of his tunes, they're ok I guess

I haven't heard anyone other than people who I knew gave a shit talk about it, where are these large numbers of people who suddenly know who Nujabes is b/c of his death that you are purporting (the people not his death, is what is being purported, by you)
