Me too. A damn shame. So many entertainers seem to be not making it to their 50s as of late. Between her, Twitch, Chester Bennington, Jeremiah Green...hell, Taylor Hawkins just turned 50 when his ticket was punched. Chris Cornell was 53, but that is just still too young to me.

Loved Gangsta Boo. Three 6 was a huge part of my upbringing and you could always count on the ladies of Three 6 Mafia having a fire verse.

Fuck me. Her album Both Worlds *69 was one of my favorites.

I knew / know her. My bff is Memphis born and bread and “Lola” and her are tight. She’s destroyed. I have fond memories of her and no doubt she’s a legend and the queen of Memphis. RIP boo.

Damn I was just showing someone the track with her, Yelawolf & Eminem, “Throw it Up”. Sad to hear she passed.

Dang I’ve been bumping old 3 6mafia trying to get back that old nostalgia and wanted to test my subs. She had such a distinct flow and probably a better rapper than most in the group..

Gangsta boo RIP

Boo was a rap pioneer. She helped pave a way for females in the rap game since her late teens. She’s a legend. RIP

Someone this morning knows they sold the bag that killed Gangeta Boo and almost killed her brother.

I was overdosed on dilauded in a hospital, went into respiratory arrest, my o2 was 22%, I was blue and seizing. My ex husband gave me sternum rubs to keep me breathing I remember waking up mad because all I wanted to do was sleep, I didn’t care when he explained that I was dying. An OD can be a very pleasant way to die.

I just bought When The Smoke Clears on CD after hearing this news. I’d like to find a copy of her album Enquiring Minds but the one copy on eBay is wayyyyy too expensive.

Rip - gone way too soon.

I was on Dilaudid for an extended period (about 3 weeks) for a major, MAJOR hospital stay I had. That shit is scary and it actually started giving me nightmares. I could see it being an extremely peaceful way to die and after 3 weeks in the hospital, the willingness to keep fighting becomes harder and harder to find.

I had them pull me off it as soon as I wasn't in near constant pain.

I love how people just are blind to history. Do you know how many people were upset that we had a black president in office. Do you forget how racist people were and how scrutinized he was for any kind of wrong doing he commited in their eyes? Do you remember how him wearing a tan suit was such a point of contention among conservative white folks. God he deserved better.

I remember when he said we were pulling out of Afghanistan. I agree it was a big moment. I’m white and I was pretty young in 2008 so it might not have hit as hard for me as for black folk or POC in general, I’m just saying that Obama overall didn’t contribute much to peace outside the US when looking at his overall policy decisions.

Oh the irony of that second clause. :)

And it was a mind boggling decision by the Nobel Committee, almost as bad as giving one to Arafat.

When Obama got the prize, he had just taken office and did not actually do anything yet.

Apprehensive-Hat5979 t1_j2o1z98 wrote

Well this is from Norwegian Nobel themselves...

"Obama has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts. The vision of a world free from nuclear arms has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations. Thanks to Obama’s initiative, the USA is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting. Democracy and human rights are to be strengthened."

My neighbor Bruce, who is a good guy with a big heart but rather crude and apparently unaware that he is clearly autistic.

Elisei Ryabukon, a 13 year old boy killed in rasPutin's mass murder in Ukraine early in Spring of last year.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the former Press Secty to ole Trumpolini, who was just elected governor of the U.S. state of Arkansas. Which is a fact plain astounding to me, but that's politics.

There's my three.

Too risky. If you don't tie your hands up, while passing out you will likely rip out whatever you're breathing out of with the nitrogen.

Requires a good cocktail that will essentially put you under anethesia unless someone is willing to help you in the act.

lostallmyconnex t1_j2okv7g wrote

Oh and finding pure nitrogen gas in 2023? Forget about it.

Unless you do something for work that will justify to a local company they should sell you a large cannister.

Easier to just buy a fent analogue than it is to buy nitrogen where I live.

I think about it quite a lot, even that small percent chance it would fail and leave me paralyzed is enough to fear the outcome.

Race has nothing to do with it! I decided I no longer care about drug addicts. I’ve had addict family members and friends die every year. I’m done being emotionally drained by them. If addicts want to party then let them party til death. While their friends and family go through hell. Fuk u for making it about race u dik head

If you don’t care, then why are you here trying to piss people off?

I don’t get it. Why come on a thread just to say something ignorant and bad about her when there are others here who liked the artist and appreciated her contributions to music? If you’re bored, it makes better sense for you to participate in threads that actually interest you.

beyondbliss t1_j2oxksx wrote

No one said you didn’t have freedom of speech. My comment doesn’t even come close to qualifying as starting a fight. I merely asked you a few questions and your response clarified everything that I needed to know about you. If anything your comment was made to try an illicit a fight and get attention. Hope the little attention I gave, made you feel whatever emotion you needed to feel.

Have the day you deserve.

Actually she was probably having fun, chilling out on the porch, just chopping it up with friends, and took a little too much of whatever it was. I've been there. If you're gonna go, that's probably one of the better ways.

Interesting- TIL there was a woman in Three 6 Mafia. I didn't even know they existed as a band before the 2000s.

Im born and raised in Nashville and everyone used to bump Three 6 Mafia around here. RIP Gangsta Boo.

lostallmyconnex t1_j2t29zc wrote

Ok, can I assume you had a reason to be there? The lpcal company requires a business to purchase it. Individuals cannot purchase the pure stuff if they aren't using it for work in most cases.

I doubt its like that everywhere. So refer to the rest of my other comment on how likely this method is to fail.

You really think Dolly Parton listens to Three 6 Mafia? I highly doubt they are on her playlist, lol. She is wholesome and kind, Three 6 is... not. I've listened to Three 6 since HS in the 90's, but it really doesn't seem like something Grandma Parton would be in to.
