March 17th, 2010

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.
in peace,
Shing02

oh, come on!

sad news. what a downer..

He looks like such a nice guy.. humble and unassuming

Now cracks a noble heart. Good-night, sweet prince.
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

FUCK

Hey, Nujabes.

I heard you like cars...

>>8242794
get the fuck out. at least show some respect.

>>8242817

>show some respect
>posting this on 4chan

D:

Feels very bad, man.

Like you mother fuckers care about hip hop

LOL AT YOUR FUCKING YACHT HOP

For the first time in 4chan history /mu/ and /a/ seem to be in agreement about something

>>8242824
sorry, but he is right >>8242817

I kinda teared up when I heard this

>although Nujabes has passed away, he left music behind to continue his legacy and will be released in the near future.

His instrumentals were godly, I'm gonna miss them

People truly don't appreciate an artist's work until they die. Farewell, Nujabes. I hardly knew ye.

>>8244958
I can honestly say that I love all of his work. It's always on the back of my mind when his next release would be.

The good always die so young... RIP.

HE DIED WAY TO FUCKING YOUNG!

I haven't been this devastated since J Dilla died. RIP Nujabes, we're going to miss you man.

This needs a bump.

I seriously can't believe he's dead.

NO...WAY...

>listening to metaphorical music
>go to /mu/
>nujabes died

Well fuck.

fucking.fuck.fucking.god.dammit.


Totally want to understand temporal mechanics and create a time loop allowing this man more time.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Holy shit, what a crappy morning this is.

goodbye.
