Professor X R.I.P
From AHH:
Professor X of X-Clan has died in a New York-area hospital after a bout with meningitis, sources close to the situation told AllHipHop.com.
As a member of X-Clan, Professor X gained notoriety for his catch phrases "Vainglorious" and dissed fools by calling them "sissies."
Additionally, Professor X, whose real name was Lumumba Carson, was the son of the late Civil Rights pioneer Sonny Carson, who produced The Education of Sonny Carson.
Damn. Rest in peace. Xodus was a pivotal album in my hip hop career even though I was only like 13 when it came out.

when I was a young buck running home to catch as much rap city as possible the group that captivated me the most in those early years was the clan. the pink cadillac was classic. xodus is classic in my eyes……and my favorite cut of that one was a.d.a.m.
RIP Proffesir X

Hip Hop Bloggers on the Passing of Professor X
A lot of folks were shook up by the death of X-Clan’s Professor X. Here’s what some hip hop bloggers and their readers had to say in remembrance. IMAGEYENATION.COM: He’s driving that pink caddy to the crossroads in the sky…

X-Clan, most notably Brother Carson were the source of many late night “study sessions” as a youth. The depth of thier liner notes read as a roll call of African and African American luminaries educational and entertaining. Professor X, the protector of the crossroads, see you there comrade, with a key!!!!
March 20th, 2006 at 5:07 pm
TO THE EAST MY BROTHA, TO THE EAST!!!!!!!!!!! RIP Professor X….
March 20th, 2006 at 6:02 pm
I guess this is sad or whatever. X-Clan had a activist group called Black Watch and they turned it into a plan to pump crack into the Black community in Ohio (I know this to be true). They had alright music but don’t let the front of conciousness fool you.

Never heard that…….interesting……where’d you get your facts from Donovan???
March 21st, 2006 at 5:52 pm
Yeah that’s a pretty heavy allegation Donavan.

Rest In Peace my Nigga. You’ll always be missed but your techniques will never be forgotten. *Puts His Fist Up High*

Making note of some minors. I’m not talking baseball, cause if I was
Brother J, we’d be playing professional. There nine innings to a
baseball game. By the way: Is it humanity? Or is it vanity?
Vainglorious! This is protected, by the red, the black, and the
green, with the key! On the road again. Sissy! And ya’ don’t stop! – Professer X
