The Legacy of Micheal Turner aka Mike T.

The Legacy of Micheal Turner aka Mike T.


I spoke with LBZ this afternoon about the loss of his best friend and business partner Mike T. Here is what LBZ had to say...

"Shit .. my nigga Mike T. of Barre None Ent., he was one of the coolest people out here in the Tone. He was a player type of dude. He would chill, enjoy his kids and make music ... that's all he wanted to do cause that's what made him happy. If I ever needed anything, he was right there. I lost more than just a rapping partner .... Mike was my best friend."

Mike T. had just turned 31. He died young, way too young.

"This is the worst hurt I have ever been through. This just wasn't supposed to happen." Beezy sadly said.

"Mike was in the Military .. he fought for his Country as well as make music. He was in Colorado with Royal Click before he came to 210. He made CDs in Bosnia, Colorado and San Antonio. We made three mix-tape albums together, and I will be releasing the one we were just finishing which will be called "Pyrex Dreams" in honor of the album he was going to release with that name this year."

"Mike and I were like two of a kind .... and he believed in me with no doubt in his mind, he would say I am the best in San Antonio. And to me .... he was the best. Mike T. is the reason why I grind so hard ... he is the inspiration that makes me want to be a better artist. He was one of the greatest rappers to walk the streets of San Antonio to me. Many will tell you that too. He and I had a lot of plans and a lot of dreams together. "

"He liked all types of music too .. there was no barrier ... we listened to everything together. Our main influences were S.U.C., UGK, Scarface and 8ball. It is sad. We would play 8Box all day, chill, blow, he was the best. My nigga didn't deserve this. He didn't bother anyone. He never hurt anyone. I can't even believe my nigga is gone. And now, he leaves behind a son and daughter that I will pick up that slack and help to take care of cause his family is my family too"

What can we do to prevent more killings?
"THINK about what you are gonna do BEFORE you do it man. Think about what CAN happen. You have to live life to the fullest. Tell your friends that you love them cause it's the little everyday things you are gonna miss the most when they are gone. So do it .. don't be afraid to tell them how you feel."

Thank you LBZ, we love you. We know these are painful times for you and we appreciate you taking the time to remember Micheal Turner with us and our readers. R.I.P. MICHEAL TURNER, MAY THE MUSIC YOU MADE LIVE ON FOREVER.




Funeral arrangements will be announced.
