    Been relistening to Willie's discography since he died last week, great to also hear this track that samples him.

    (Even if both Willie & KRS-One got... problematic later in life. I wish someone had "soundbombed" KRS's performance for Eric Adams by playing "Black Cop" over a huge sound system.)

  14. Salsa legend Willie Colón has died.

    In 2013, he came to Puebla for the Festival Internacional 5 de Mayo, & my ex & I got to the main square 3 hours in advance to be right at the front to watch him. An amazing show!

    Here's a video (not mine, mine has very feeble sound) from that concert, which also happened to be on his birthday. Medley of songs he did with Héctor Lavoe.
