We Lost a Great One

Posted by Grim Reaper jr. on 6/25/2026, 2:23 pm

He was one of gm's favorites, mine too. We lost a great one today. RIP David Clayton Thomas, 84. What a powerful voice! Yet, oh so gentle and smooth. Enjoy my favorite by BS@T jam. Notice the jazz/rock mix. They were one of the first.

GREAT VOICE but only had a major hit with The Chantels..

Arlene Smith has been claimed by the wicked wicked Almighty..
She was an original of The Chantels..
She was 84-years old..

'MAYBE' was their biggest hit..
How do I know it? BECAUSE BACK IN THE ISLANDS MY AUNT USE TO PLAY & SING THAT FREAKING SONG EVERY DAY & NIGHT IN HER HOUSE😆🤣
When the Oldies radio station in NYC played it I would just shake my head because my music memory bank would drift me to early childhood experiences. Lol
MAY ARLENE SMITH REST IN A SWEET PEACEFUL PLACE. AMEN

Signed: such sweet R&B music did indeed soothed the soul.. today its all about Bitches & Ho's...grimreaper Sr.

It Coud Have Been an "INDUCED" Earthquake,...ask Kris...

It could be some engineering operations behind it. It already happened in India in 2016 and it was NOT a natural earthquake driven by tectonic plate movements.

After seeing all these wars/attacks on Venezuela, plus Maduro being captured by the US inside his country yet the people of Venezuela are still supporting Maduro, I had to conclude that the Venezuelan earthquake wasn't natural. Man, science can be weaponized for destructive ends when directed by malevolent human intent or harmful ideologies. I know Pygmies don't own this science, but kris does.

You guys are so cold & uncaring. Shameful!

The loving & long time wife of Minister Farrakhan, Khadijah Farrakhan, the First Lady of the Nation of Islam, passed away a couple weeks ago and no one mentioned her passing.
Min Farrakhan has been demonized so completely that his wife dies and most Black folks don't know about it. Pretty shameful & embarrassing!
MAY KHADIJAH FARRAKHAN REST PEACEFULLY IN A NOI HEAVEN FOREVER. AMEN

Signed: and so it goes....grimreaper

Yes, she seems to have been a sweetheart. One report said she was 87, while another said she was 90. And even if we didn’t know her personally, thanks for the acknowledgements, bro. I’d felt the word had gotten out pretty well over the general media, but thanks for the sentiments. My good friend Tarik is a member of the nation. He posts on here occasionally. He sent me something on her passing.

May she indeed RIP.(photo below)

Sincere Condolences to Minister Farrakhan, the family and the NOI. If it wasn't for LLC theone would not have heard of her passing.

She was loved. Rest in PowerPoint Queen!!!

Signed: But after all, I just had to do my job. Almighty
