R.I.P. DJ AM



I am truly at a loss for words. Highly respected and popular DJ and all around a great guy, real name Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM passed Friday evening apparently a result of a drug overdose. Now this hasn't been confirmed considering they are still going through toxicology testing after the first round of tests came back inconclusive but it is among high speculation as being the cause of death. According to AllHipHop.com:

"The popular disc jockey was discovered about 5:20 PM, according to TMZ.com Goldstein’s friends reportedly became concerned when none of them had heard from him in several days. One went to check on him, but didn’t get him after going straight to the apartment room. The police broke into the apartment after the unnamed friend called them.They found him unresponsive and determined that he was dead.

The last thing he said via his Twitter account was, “New york, new york. Big city of dreams, but everything in new york aint always what it seems.”Almost a year ago in September 2008, DJ AM and Travis Barker survived a plane crash in South Carolina. Both men were badly burned and were the only ones that made it out alive
".


Such a tragedy. My heart goes out to his family and friends.
