I always dreamed of interviewing Shock or at least thanking him for his brilliance. #DigitalUnderground has been a mainstay in my life since I was a teen. No matter where I traveled I always had a DU CD, or mp3, on my playlist. The musical world feels more empty without greats like #ShockG #Prince and #BBKing. #DU4Life #Digi4Life #PianoMan #Repost @therealshockg with @make_repost ・・・ Repost: @tommyboyrecords One year ago today, the world lost one of our brightest lights to ever shine in this Hip Hop culture. Gregory Edward Jacobs (August 25, 1963 – April 22, 2021), known professionally as Shock G. We miss you 🙏🏿🕊✨ #RIPShockG #DigitalUnderground https://www.instagram.com/p/CcsZHHVrQbr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I am too late. 😢 After the death of DMX, I realized that I never gave Shock G his #HeartbeatProps. I was planning to post something in this space telling him how much he and his work meant to me. But... 😢. Since I was a teen, I have never been without music by #DigitalUnderground or #EarthWindAndFire. They were always the first tapes or CD i grabbed when leaving out or first albums I loaded on a new MP3 player or cellphone. Shock G (-bka- Gregory Jacobs -aka- Humpty Hump -aka- Piano Man) and @moneyb69 have travelled with me by car, train, subway, motorcycle, airplane, bus, or on foot since “Sex Packets”dropped in 1990. While most people remember him as Edward Ellington “Humpty Hump” Humphrey III, it was his powerful yet elegant work as Piano Man where you saw his genius. From his lyrics, to his beats, to his skits, to his performances... Shock gave us everything. From “Arguin’ on the Funk” to “Sons of the P” to “Carry the Way” to “Peanut Hakim” to “The Gravy” and every musical interlude. His genius just spills out of every track. Thank you Shock. #Digi4Life. Peace and love to @moneyb69, @younghumpdu, their crew, and families. #ShockG #GregoryJacobs #DigitalUnderground #DU #PianoMan #music #HipHop https://www.instagram.com/p/CN_zYTshf1w/?igshid=1avuvcvtxmdvo

One of the little known things about me, is that I'm a big fan of #DigitalUnderground and especially the talented #ShockG. No. 1 thing on #MyGeekBucketList is to interview him one day. (See URL below) If I don't get to tell his story, I hope someone else does. #Digi4Life #HeartbeatProps #PacketMan #ArguinOnTheFunk #NoNoseJob #DFLOShuttle #JerkitCircus #PeanutHakeemAnafuWashington #RimeInTheMochanut http://theblackgeeks.com/my-geekbucketlist/
