Less than a month after losing house music pioneer Frankie Knuckles, Chicago is mourning another DJ. DJ Rashad was found dead this weekend. The dancer turned DJ’s latest EP was scheduled for release on vinyl on Monday. Vocalo hip hop correspondent Gabe Mendoza looks back on the DJ’s life, and shares a cut from the new EP. And, arts administrator and activist Lauren Pacheco discusses the sudden death of graffiti artist Brooks Golden, who some may know from his murals of owls throughout the city. Photo: Flickr/drtchock
