Rest in Peace Don Cornelius

Post by AbdiWahab252 »

Humanity lost a great man yesterday. This brother was responsible for bring soul to millions through Soul Train, his hit TV show. He was what MLK was to the civil rights movement, what Mother Theresa was to charity, etc. Don Cornelius helped change the face of Americana across the entire globe.

R.I.P. Don Cornelius !

Dhaga,

As a kid, I remember watching Soul Train on tape. It was the shit.

Patriot,

Those were the good days. Used to ball so hard in a 50 CD vehicle.

I preferred Visions or Bubbles over F2.
