Sad news.  And it feels.... strange to read of someone almost exactly the same age as me dying (of natural causes, that is).

I can't claim to be a hip hop fan, but I did buy Licensed to Ill (on vinyl) back in the day, for "Fight for Your Right" and "No Sleep Till Brooklyn".

It is sad. 47 is no age. 1 more than me.
I loved their 'In sound from way out' in the 90's
