So now its Feb. 1997 and things was kind of mellowing out. His new LP was beginning to drop and his life was kinda in order with a clear mind. Had big plans on the horizion&#8230; Commission LP, workin wit Puff on his 1st LP, supposed to do a verse on CNN&#8217;s &#8220;TONY&#8221; Remix (yes, he heard the track before he passed) and many other business ventures.
