    ZOMG! Nujabes!

    Nujabes, a hip-hop paragon, died in a car accident some time in February of this year.

    You most likely have heard some of his music...he's the mastermind behind the music in Samurai Champloo...
    ...with some help from his Asian-American buddy Shing02!

    If some of you remember I had a Nujabes signature last year too...

    Seriously though his music was top class.
    Some of my favorites are LuvSic Part 3, Reflection Eternal, and Aruarian Dance.

    Have any of your favorite artists died suddenly? Tupac maybe?

    Omg, I had no idea about this! I love his music. This is truly sad news.

    I don't bother with Samurai Champloo, but I've heard of him from other members on this site. He will be missed.

    Oh no

    I kept meaning to check out more of his stuff after getting the Samurai Champloo OST, but I still haven't gotten around to it ;_;

    Yeah, it was pretty sad to hear of his passing. They say it happened during the recent earthquakes in Japan, he was in a car crash.

    I've never shared this here, but I put a video up on YouTube a few months ago featuring one of his songs that got pretty popular.

    Yeah the world's lost one of the last real hip-hop producers out there. It's awful. RIP dawg.

    Damn, that's not at all fun to hear. I really loved his work on Samurai Champloo.

    Ninja Pubes, Nujabes, same difference. Jun Seba was a God among men and he will be missed. Samurai Champloo is what turned me onto his music. I went out and bought the CDs.

    I've never even heard of him.

    I'll check out Samurai Champloo, but are there any other recommendations?

    Download either Metaphorical Music or Modal Soul, both are excellent.

    Nah im just messing.

    R.I.P I didnt know the band but I watched Champloo and wondered who it was. Always sad for HIP-HOP (NOT RAP!!!!) artists who pass away...
