LL Cool J also paid his respects, tweeting: “R.I.P. Chris Kelly ... May GOD embrace your soul & lift up your family.”

Because he certainly lived a life embracing God!

Never heard of him, his group or this song but RIP. 34 is far too young to die.

RIGHT, unless the dead were Christians or Conservatives. I leave it up to the lord to judge, but I still think it’s fair to say that this soul had very little to do with god in life.

It's a real shock isn't it? Who'd have thought a rapper/hip hop artist known for wearing his pants on backwards would be involved in drugs?

Obviously he died because we failed to pass enough 0bama gun control laws.

You wonder if people like this would have been better off never having any fame than a brief moment that resulted in them getting involved with drugs.

“Wear your pants backwards in mourning today,”

Yeah, that sums of the idiocy that is crap music. How about in honor of the deceased: Get a pair of pants that fit and wear them appropriately on the waist. Talk like an adult. Use manners. Find a job. Work.

Very sad. Too bad he got caught up with drugs, such a waste. May God comfort his friends and family. RIP

Speed balling his way out of this world. Should have asked John Belushi how it worked out for him.

I see no down side to society that he has been removed from the gene pool.

Druggies just drag down the rest of society and we end up paying for scum who feel anything goes. Well he went.

You can’t spell crap without rap.

Rap ‘music’ part of the culture of death.
