I met Shakir like 8 years ago when he was at Hitco,he was young and full of great energy,very smart and focused,we sat in a lounge and kicked it,I stayed in touch with him,he definetly motivated me as a younger brother trying to score big in this music business, even when he got that big spot at Def jam sent him a email to say congrats,we always stayed in touch,I even had him coming to my One Stop Shop conference in 09 to speak to the next generation of producers,never did I think I would get a call from Chaka last night with him just checking on my spirit,he said to me man my boy of 17 years just passed,I couldn't believe it,may he rest in peace,I was touched that Chaka had me in mind to check me,I will always remember that Chaka,love u bro,he was one I would call when I was down about the industry .He helped me stay focused and boosted my spirit,you see at times like this you need a friend like Chaka,someone to pull you out the slump,God test our faith all the time without us knowing,I wish I could of boosted Shake's spirit..He will always be remembered..My blog really helps me speak my mind and help motivate others that need that extra boost.May GOD REST HIS SOUL.
