I have nothing nice to say about gospel singer and their religious fuckeries so I will say nothing about this fat bastard.

I would have had more respect if you actually said nothing. Having nothing nice to say followed by calling him a fat bastard is really saying to much. If that is you in the pic your ass dont look small. You do not have to be religious to show respect to his family & friends that mourn him.

f*ck you and that fat bastard, he probably was a fan of eddie long. I don't need to be bobble head thin to call him a fat bastard which is what he was, any kneegrow upholding the yt mans slave religion gets no love this way.

Nubian Godless: Perhaps you speak from a place of knowing deep in your heart that no one will bother to mourn for you when it is your time. Perhaps they will celebrate - not having to suffer your evil anymore.

@10:50AM f-U coming from you is not a put down. Being sensative to the family & friends of someone who has passed away is not a black or white thing it's a heart thing. Sounds like your parents showed you no love,no repsect, no compassion and no consideration therefore you do not know how to show it to others. I hurt for you...I will keep you in my prayers along with Mr. Peastons friends and family...

I am sorry to hear that he died, i enjoyed watching him sing God bless the child on the apollo show in the late 80's, Rip David.

10:18 AM, This man had gospel and soul roots. It is what he was raised on and what he knew and what he was good at. Nobody told you-you had to listen to it or like it. Unless you knew him personally, you knew nothing about where he stood when it came to his spiritual belief system. One doesn't have to worship anyone or anything to sing gospel music, just like one doesn't have to worship Satan to enjoy secular music. People like what they like.

@Nubian, you are one educated but classless lady!

I wonder if he had a spouse and children. He had such a beautiful voice and was so underrated. I wish more people could have heard him sing.

...just read that he had 2 sons and a longtime spouse...

@Nubian is STR8 FOOLISH Though !!! ***LMAO***

HER Perceptions-n-Opinions shouldn't affect NOBODY that doesn't share them and SHE IS Highly Intelligent along with HAVING Intellect Too (WORD)

Y'all can ALWAYZ Scroll past her comments (IT Takes NO EFFORT Whatsoever...)

I FIRST seen him on APOLLO and He SHUT IT DOWN Though !!!

@8:14...I.know we clown and trip on here but the man is gone leaving behind family and friends that loved him. It was a fucked up thing to say and ppl are entitled to tell her how fucked up the ignorant shit was, so may be next time she might think before she says some lame ass heartless shit. So save us the diatribe abt the chick's background & how we can avoid her comments & pull ya girl to the side and talk to her...

@E Love you could have effortlessly scrolled past the comments that had nothing to do with you regarding her. I did not read anything from anyone questioning her intellect only the hate filled comment about someone that has done NOTHING to her. I hate the thought that u feel her comment in that situation was Intelligent- having sound judgement, mentally acute
Intellect-the ability to learn & reason, capacity for knowledge...That is sooo heartless & that is what was being questioned.
