This one is for Dave. A full set of music from De La Soul, with words from Skyy Hook of the legendary Wake Up Show, Dave Zirin from The Nation, Gabriel Teodros and a bunch of other friends. "Years just blow by My eyes stay fixed but the picture's kinda out of focus I cry a lot but admit to it Enjoying life now but I've been through it Sometimes I wish that I can go back No bills no kids just getting tore back I want a wife, I love women How could I front like I don't be in love wit em? A little man that I can teach A little sand but not the beach I figure excess'll only bring an excessive amount of fuss So when I'm gone, make sure the head stone reads: He did it for us." Trugoy the Dove, "Trying People"

Support us at http://www/patreon.com/illdoctrine and get the full 2-hour archive of this and every episode! Gregory Jacobs was a genius. I've seen this repeated all over social media, by so many people who knew him, studied him, grew up in Bay Area scene he gave so much to. So much creativity in him it couldn't be contained in one person, he had to create a Shock G, Humpty, a Piano Man. And those who knew him best will tell you we still never got to see and hear the half of it, because he was that soul for whom the spotlight is more stress than sustenance. Which makes it all the more precious to me how he leaves behind such a dope musical legacy, built on showing all of us nerds and oddballs we have a seat at the table and a place on the dance floor. This week we try our best to honor the great Shock G, with a special mix from Tamara aka T Money including rarities and excerpts from her interviews with him.
