Gylan Kain. The poet. The genius. I was fortunate to be his friend and his accomplice in music.
He was the driving force behind The Last Poets which in turn was the breeding ground for the emergence of hip hop and rap as a cultural phenomenon.
This is a piece we put together back in the day..

Didn’t know he died this is beautiful.. Black Satin Amazon Fire Engine Crybaby was the first song I heard by him sampled by Digable Planets
