Weekend Videos: Gil Scott-Heron- I’m New Here

The sad news came through this week that legendary artist Gil Scott-Heron has passed. In many ways it was fitting that his last album ‘I’m Still Here‘ was released just last year. It was through this work, and the recent Jamie XX remixes, that a generation of new fans could discover his great body of work.

I have seen many eulogies in the past few days but perhaps the best tribute I have read comes from Justin at Aquarium Drunkard who wrote this touching post. I feel there is not much more to add. Rest in piece.
