A year ago on May 21, 1989, we lost a dear friend, brother and family member. Lindzay Richburg was all those things in the time we knew him. The kind of special person who comes around once in this lifetime. Futuristic. Charasmatic. Kool Aid. L’roy Jetsun. Shining Star. Passionate. Pure adrenaline. Innovative. Determined. Swag. Bow Bow. All describe our prodigy who left us too soon a month shy of his 21st birthday.
Though gone, he lives on in spirit. Everyday, he’s watching over us with that Kool Aid grin and effervescent flow that was always the show. Saturday night, we honored his memory the best way we knew how. You know he was there smiling down and laughing cause he wouldn’t have it any other way. Rich Kid. This is for you. And remember. Legends Never Die
“A Futuristic Legend”
by Derek Felix AKA D Flex
A shining light
Never fades away
Not under the spotlight
Nor on such a special day
We remember you forever
Your Kool Aid grin shining through
Magic beats oh so clever
A chance to kick back and have a brew
Not a day goes by without you
You’re looking through the glass
Bopping and weaving in the rear view
Taking names and kicking ass
Rocking your white boy/black boy swag
For us to see
A star who belongs in Rolling Stone mag
Bow Bow shall never be history
I saw your face in the moon
Wide eyed grin forever proud
Knowing we’ll celebrate your birthday in June
Gone but not forgotten by this crowd
We’ll always love you for eternity
Laugh to wash away the pain
And picture your image on billboards in the city
Your glowing sun overshadowing the rain
So driven in every way
Fitting in after a big move
Always inspiring us each day
Rocking your harmony smooth like a groove
Making us float in the air
Into a different dimension
No reason to hide our fears
Only your paradise of divine intervention
Spreading your wings of love
A boss man with charisma
Never lacking passion as you watch above
Carrying on your legendary flava
You’re our big dog who barks in the twilight
An amazing angel with stylish rims
Knowing we salute you not shoot you tonight
Swagging it up with your infectious persona that wins
Always going extra for the benjamins
Hustling lucys and fancy sports watches
So one day you’d rock a Benz
Kicking your flow up a few notches
Unforgettable memories that never fade away
Rocking like Marley for shorties
A great person still leading the way
Working the lazy eye driving ‘em crazy
Unselfish with the biggest heart to the max
Never a liar just the special one’s desire
In between all the dynamic beat tracks
Every moment Future was on fire
The coolness with which you displayed
A son, brother, couz, friend till the end
The wonderful style L’roy Jetsun played
Our own shining star who innovated a new trend
We still see you in the sky
Not sad at all or wondering why
You can’t it’s not your way oh so fly
The rich kid’s legend will never die
