a 58 year old black man named Earl Smith was lynched in albany new york.
the police don't care to identify him or look at camera footage in the area. it's not on the news in albany and police immediately deemed it suicide. this country is NOT safe don't let anyone tell you it is. it's 2025.

earl smiths obituary
Haven’t seen any posts about this on here so I felt the need to share this. His name is Earl Smith. None of his family members who’ve spoken about this believe this was a suicide. Coverage on this has been abysmal. There were cameras where he was found with footage that could very well solve this that the police aren’t accessing. Keeping everything quiet and shrouded in mystery is intentional. We can’t let this get swept under the rug and let the unjust discrimination and violence against us become a pattern.

R.I.P. Earl´s Smith Jr. ! Today we celebrate your birthday !
Almost 20 years ago we recorded a track (with Hardfloor) but something was missing.We decided to contact Earl Smith Jr. aka „Spanky“ from the legendary Phuture Project to lay down some vocals.When they arrived at our studio (he brought Professor Trax with him) he was fucking around with the vocals and lyrics during the mic check.He was like: "This is Cocaine speaking“ and "Phuture will survive“ and i got goosebumps since these were the tracks which brought me into music production.Immediately he came up with the hook: "Hardfloor will survive - Phuture will stay alive“ and everyone was like: Yeah, that´s it !…... let´s do this !…..so they wrote the rest of the lyrics for this song. During the recording process Ramon and I discovered the potential of the lyrics and since our original version was more „laid back“ we recorded the „Club Mix“ the next day. Until today It´s part of our live sets !

A Parable as Sung to a Quasi-Existent God
By Earl Smith I sit on my twig – listening - watching. Below they sit beside the running stream, these two greatest of all men - musing, watching a wave waiting ever patiently for the rock that has blocked its way to finish its sedentary undertaking. “That wave, it moves yet not at all, how can it be, yet not be, all at once”? asked the great Parmenides. “So much movement, so little motion, the…
