A few weeks ago, the music world lost another great producer, Sylvia Robinson. Robinson, who worked at Sugar Hill Records, passed away. She helped produced such hits as "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash (1981) and the masterpiece, "Rapper's Delight" from the Sugar Hill Gang. From 1979, "Rapper's Delight" was the first hip-hop song to hit radio. And the rest is history. Better than today's shit.

For those taking your kids out on Monday for trick or treating, be safe and always be weary about your surroundings. Thank you.
