Yo, i am late, but i just wanted to send a message to the Binkis RECs crew. While living in ATL i attended the Art Institute where i met mad people that where creative and had a passion to push things forward. I met Flux and Jax through FRANK atl. The scene back then was crazy. Binlkis was one of the most OG groups and they where real, they lived it day in and day out. Although i moved on to other things in my life i always revisited the atl scene via internet. i followd Jaxs career and was always amazed at his unique ability to to make you laugh and make you think. He is missd. Flux my man keep his memory alive by pushing the envelope even futher. Peace and Blessings.

peace Jax it’s me Chelsea- the girl you taught how to roll pitas at Marco’s way back when. i know i’m a little late on the scene and i haven’t been around for awhile, but i just gotta say that hearing the news knocked the wind out of me. i didn’t even get to know you that well but that’s the kind of impact you made on people. all i know is that your life has been a blessing on this earth- your energy, your brilliance, your sense of humor and contagious smile were always a welcome break from the everyday grind. i thank you for being with us for the time that you were, and i send love and strength to Lisa and your family and your many loved ones. RIP Jax your shine is eternal *

This is a shock to me for real. Im sitting in my office and its hitting home so hard for me right now. From the times we all was at Art & Design to the times of being in the A its unreal to find your friends you had so many laughs with in high school and find them in Atlanta where you moved at too. Chris was my dude for real.You cant put everything you want to say in this small space but just know that it hurts to lose someone you call a friend and to know the best times in your life you shared with a person who you can’t laugh with about it. Im just mad I didn’t get to get up with you in person once I got in the Army. To Craig aka and Kalm I will get with you all on some real shit. You already know fam stay fam. My heart goes out to everyone who has ever been in a presence of such an extraordinary person. Jax forever in our heart and minds

Yo ……… Jax is my older brotha, I never thought that when I came to ATL I would run into him and Flux on the first day of class at Clark my first time on the campus; but there they were! Laughin’ at me Yo! look at that kid Spice-in Atlanta son! I’ll never forget that day or think that the wealth of memorable stage destructions would even occur before I came to ATL. No blog can contain all that I want to express. Being there at the beginning. Fro eatin’ curly fries and watchin’ thunder cats at the morehouse caf’ to being roommates p on fair st. The dialogues, the chemistry, the creativity, the concerns, the nobodies fuckin with BINKIS, the day that the word BINKIS was born, punch in sampler and home made closet booth, the transplanted birthing of JAX (Jedis Always Xhists) home made tapes with real starwars interludes and clip edits, the first time I heard the track JAX produced for S.P.I.C.E is Nice straight from the gemini mixer… b 4 the MPC days, the little boy who could see us from next door spittin and recording and who watched till we was done or till he was done. The Buford HWY crew. Livin’ wit cats while on the couch stugglin’ for the next shit. The Pita Shop where we used to calculate and document how many push and sit ups we could do b 4 opening up shop, The first time BINKIS performed at the YINYANG CAFE, Neblos, “The TALISMEN”(pre Binkis group -wit Flux, Universal and of couse J.A.X) The Art and Design days when I met “Chris and Craig” in High School. It doesn’t end and my brotha wont eva stop. The hardest thing was being in China and hearing the news and then my pops passed at the same time now I’m here and the first cats that that I would even consider callin’ is BINKIS! to talk to JAX and FLUX. I’m hurt real bad. I just helped that brotha move some things in his crib b4 I jetted out when spent the day together and talk about all thos days and times even stop in on Marco at the pita shop. I dont know what else B! To the Thurston family I extend my Heartfelt Wishes and Condolences To Lisa I love you and will be here 4 u no doubts. To BINKIS : gotta keep rockin’ cause we know more than anybody else what JAX would say “MAN… GO HEAD SON!” PEACE JAX AKA TOMAX the other half of our group TOMAX and XAMON the FengShui Brovas AKA the Caramel Kings
LOVE S.P.I.C.E
