Person Who Died

The injustice is not that Basketball Diaries and "People Who Died" author Jim Carroll is dead and Kanye West is alive. Mr. Carroll's heroin addiction at a young age probably did enough damage to his body that his living to be 60 was a major achievement. And I wish no ill occurrence to Mr. West.

The injustice is that the world has a handful of musical albums by Mr. Carroll, but has already endured four albums from Mr. West and will probably be forced to bear still more from this boorish horse's patoot.
