Gospel Gangstaz

Unfortunately we have to open this episode of the news show with a double shot of bad news. In the midst of a comeback album, Mr. Solo of the legendary CHH group Gospel Gangstaz has unexpectedly passed away. Not much has been made public yet except that his body was found.
The news came out when Chille Baby posted this to his FB:
“ITS JUS TOO MUCH TO SAY!!!!
THIS IS ONE OF MY SADDEST DAYZ!
R.I.P 2 MY BROTHER, MY BROTHER IN YAHWEH,MY HOMIE,MY BUSINESS PARTNER
MY DAY 1 AND MY BEST FRIEND!
WE DID EVERYTHING TOGETHER SINCE WE WAS KIDS
OUR WHOLE LIVES TEARS WILL C 4EVA STUCC ON MY FACE! IM A MISS YOU 4EVA!!!! LOC”

For those who don’t know about the legacy of the group, now would be a good time to do a look back and discover how they smashed on the scene in 1994 with Gang Affiliated.
Prayers out to Mr. Solo’s family and all affected by this loss.

Ravi Zacharias

Another tragic loss of life occurred with the death of Christian Apologist Ravi Zacharias. You’d be hard-pressed to find a Christian not affected by Ravi declaration of faith, books, teachings, and affinity for the divinity. Like Mr. Solo, CHH let their thoughts be known all over social media as the world lost a titan in the faith.
