"content": "\u003cp>The family of legendary reggae artist Peter Tosh is filing a civil rights lawsuit and seeking a U.S. Department of Justice investigation after Tosh’s son, 37-year-old Jawara McIntosh — himself a musician and marijuana legalization activist — was left in a coma after being beaten while in the custody of the Bergen County Jail in New Jersey four months ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to McIntosh’s family, the beating occurred on Feb. 21; the resulting brain injuries were so severe that he has been comatose ever since. He was first hospitalized at New Jersey’s Hackensack Medical Center and has since been moved to a hospital in Massachusetts, where he resides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McIntosh’s family says that they learned of the beating when his mother, Melody Cunningham, received a call from the Hackensack hospital saying McIntosh needed a “life-saving medical procedure” after being attacked at the jail. Niambe McIntosh, Jawara’s sister, tells NPR today that their mother then received a call from the jail’s warden, saying that the incident involved another inmate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Niambe McIntosh adds, “We have since, upon request, got an incident report that just didn’t really give a lot of information, but it just said there was another inmate [involved]. There was very little detail as to what happened.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family has announced that they are seeking to file a civil rights lawsuit against the county and the jail “for failing to protect Jawara while he was in its custody, or directly participating in this brutal beating.” The family is being represented by attorney Jasmine Rand, who has in the past represented the families of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They are also seeking the immediate release of additional information and evidence from the incident, and have sent a request to the federal Department of Justice asking for an impartial investigation into what transpired at the jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for the Bergen County sheriff’s office told NPR this afternoon that there was no statement immediately forthcoming, but there “may” be one issued later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A statement from the family \u003ca href=\"http://petertosh.com/justice-for-jawara/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">asserts\u003c/a> that Jawara McIntosh is “presently unable to speak or use any form of communication; nor is he able to move with intent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkp7Q70hXtg\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McIntosh is the father of four children, ranging in age from 6 to 11, and as an artist performs under the name Tosh1. He is also a longtime advocate for the legalization of cannabis. Like his father, McIntosh is a practicing Rastafarian; within the religion, cannabis is considered sacred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peter Tosh, was, along with Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer, one of the founding members of The Wailers; Marley and Tosh co-wrote the anthemic “Get Up Stand Up.” As a solo artist, Tosh wrote and recorded 1976’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABc8ciT5QLs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“Legalize It”\u003c/a> — a song that McIntosh also frequently performed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time of the attack, McIntosh was about two months into serving a six-month sentence, after pleading guilty to marijuana possession. In a phone call today with NPR, Jasmine Rand said that before this arrest and sentencing, McIntosh had no prior criminal record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rand also asserts, “To me, it was completely egregious that Bergen County Jail had really not provided them any information how it had transpired. They were not forthcoming with evidence. They had not provided any video, any audio, any photographs, or really told the family exactly how it is that while in their custody, Jawara was so violently beaten to a point where he’s now been in a coma for four months.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003c/strong>“We are also working with the family,” Rand says, “on a larger legalization effort. As we know, many states have decriminalized or legalized cannabis — and there are far too many people in this nation that are imprisoned on cannabis charges, resulting in mass incarceration, police brutality, murder and, in this case, has left Jawara in a coma. So the issue that the Tosh family is facing is not an isolated issue. It’s an issue that are nation is facing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And as we continue to decriminalize cannabis,” Rand continues, “we need to look at what happens with prisoners. We need to look at record expungement, restoration of voting rights. The family of Peter Tosh, Jawara’s family, are very committed to protecting not just Jawara’s rights, but rights of other people throughout this nation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a video posted yesterday, the family wrote: “40 years ago, our father began the fight to legalize cannabis and despite its medicinal value and many states completely legalizing it, some states are still clinging to antiquated laws and a broken criminal justice system to deal with it. This is criminal. We can’t be bystanders any longer.” \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"aligncenter noborder\">\nhttps://vimeo.com/222620226\u003cbr>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Aswat founder Nabila Mango said she wants to “celebrate the beauty of ‘the others.’” Among other highlights, look for Sudanese vocalist Salma Al Assal, profiled in a KQED video (posted above).

On some level, it appears as if Hardwick just said to himself, “What do millennials like? Let’s mash together music, gaming, tech, comic books and comedy.” Not a bad idea, when you’re featuring Demetri Martin, Michael Che, Nikki Glaser, Garfunkel & Oates (the musical-comedy duo comprised of Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci, two of Zahra’s favorites), Michael Ian Black, plus Sacramento native Brian Posehn. The main stage features music from rather nerdy bands including Weezer and OK Go, and includes Tank and the Bangas out of New Orleans, who won the NPR \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/event/music/519418207/tank-and-the-bangas-tiny-desk-concert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tiny Desk Contest \u003c/a>this year. By the way, the title of the show, ID10T, is itself a nerd’s inside joke — it’s a made-up code for user error. In other words, the bug in the program is the person at the keyboard. That must be me. \u003ca href=\"http://id10tfest.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Details here.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hIl1eYiVc8\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>July 23–25\u003c/strong>: American symphony orchestras rarely program a whole evening of modern American music. But this weekend the San Francisco Symphony finishes its season with the sort of American Mavericks concert that Michael Tilson Thomas has made his specialty — the program includes Charles Ives, George Antheil (“A Jazz Symphony”), Lou Harrison, and a West Coast premiere from Michael Tilson Thomas himself, plus videos and dance.

Aswat founder Nabila Mango said she wants to “celebrate the beauty of ‘the others.’” Among other highlights, look for Sudanese vocalist Salma Al Assal, profiled in a KQED video (posted above).

Let’s mash together music, gaming, tech, comic books and comedy.” Not a bad idea, when you’re featuring Demetri Martin, Michael Che, Nikki Glaser, Garfunkel & Oates (the musical-comedy duo comprised of Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci, two of Zahra’s favorites), Michael Ian Black, plus Sacramento native Brian Posehn. The main stage features music from rather nerdy bands including Weezer and OK Go, and includes Tank and the Bangas out of New Orleans, who won the NPR \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/event/music/519418207/tank-and-the-bangas-tiny-desk-concert\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tiny Desk Contest \u003c/a>this year.

"headTitle": "Mobb Deep’s Prodigy Dies At 42 | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>Prodigy, one-half of iconic New York rap duo Mobb Deep, has died, according to a statement provided to NPR by a publicist for the group. The statement goes on to say that the rapper, born Albert Johnson, was hospitalized “a few days ago in Vegas after a Mobb Deep performance for complications caused by sickle cell anemia crisis.” Johnson battled the disease throughout his lifetime. He was 42 years old. No cause of death is known at this time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The emcee was best known for crafting narratives of struggle and survival, depicting New York in the depths of the crack era, but he had music flowing through his veins from the beginning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prodigy’s mother, Fatima Johnson, was a member of the ’60s R&B group The Crystals, and also served as Mobb Deep’s first manager. When she passed, on Christmas Eve, 2016, Prodigy \u003ca href=\"http://theboombox.com/prodigys-mother-fatima-johnson-has-died-photo/\">publicly eulogized\u003c/a> her on Instagram: “I want to take a moment and salute this beautiful soul. Fatima Johnson, may u Rest In Peace,” he wrote. “There wouldn’t be a Mobb Deep without you literally!! Our first manager, our first support team and believed in us when no one else did! You’ll always always be remembered.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prodigy co-founded the Queens-based Mobb Deep in the early ’90s, alongside partner Havoc (Kejuan Muchita). The two became synonymous with a brand of East Coast gangsta rap that represented the ill street blues, grit and grime of pre-gentrified New York City, debuting with \u003cem>Juvenile Hell\u003c/em> in 1993. But it was their 1995 follow-up, \u003cem>The Infamous\u003c/em>, that cemented their image and legacy. The music was dark, with eerie undertones that reflected the environmental hazards \u003cstrong>and criminal exploits \u003c/strong>of day-to-day living in the hood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“New York got a n**** depressed / so I wear a slug-proof underneath my Guess,” Prodigy rapped on 1995’s “Survival of the Fittest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Queensbridge Houses from which they hailed and represented on record are the same, storied projects that nurtured hip-hop legends Marley Marl, MC Shan, Roxanne Shante, and Mobb Deep contemporaries Nas, Cormega, Nature, Tragedy Khadafi, and more.

The statement goes on to say that the rapper, born Albert Johnson, was hospitalized “a few days ago in Vegas after a Mobb Deep performance for complications caused by sickle cell anemia crisis.” Johnson battled the disease throughout his lifetime. He was 42 years old. No cause of death is known at this time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The emcee was best known for crafting narratives of struggle and survival, depicting New York in the depths of the crack era, but he had music flowing through his veins from the beginning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prodigy’s mother, Fatima Johnson, was a member of the ’60s R&B group The Crystals, and also served as Mobb Deep’s first manager. When she passed, on Christmas Eve, 2016, Prodigy \u003ca href=\"http://theboombox.com/prodigys-mother-fatima-johnson-has-died-photo/\">publicly eulogized\u003c/a> her on Instagram: “I want to take a moment and salute this beautiful soul. Fatima Johnson, may u Rest In Peace,” he wrote. “There wouldn’t be a Mobb Deep without you literally!! Our first manager, our first support team and believed in us when no one else did! You’ll always always be remembered.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prodigy co-founded the Queens-based Mobb Deep in the early ’90s, alongside partner Havoc (Kejuan Muchita). The two became synonymous with a brand of East Coast gangsta rap that represented the ill street blues, grit and grime of pre-gentrified New York City, debuting with \u003cem>Juvenile Hell\u003c/em> in 1993. But it was their 1995 follow-up, \u003cem>The Infamous\u003c/em>, that cemented their image and legacy. The music was dark, with eerie undertones that reflected the environmental hazards \u003cstrong>and criminal exploits \u003c/strong>of day-to-day living in the hood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“New York got a n**** depressed / so I wear a slug-proof underneath my Guess,” Prodigy rapped on 1995’s “Survival of the Fittest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Things that shouldn’t have made sense — from Nudie suits and scarves as belts, to cheetah-prints and graphic striped trousers mixed with polka dots — always looked effortless on him. Unbeknownst to many at the time, it was Anita Pallenberg’s closet from which Richard was pulling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As a kid I wanted to dress like Keith Richards, I wasn’t at all interested in women’s fashion, it was guys in bands I wanted to emulate,” British designer Pamela Hogg tells NPR Music. “But it was a long time before I realized Anita was behind all these great looks, they couldn’t help but be influenced by her amazing sense of style, it was contagious.” She and Pallenberg would eventually connect in a coffee shop in Paris in the 1980’s, and their friendship would result in Pallenberg walking Hogg’s runway during London Fashion Week in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Pallenberg, a German-Italian actress and model, died last week at 73 she was remembered foremost, if headlines are any guide, as The Rolling Stones’ “muse and rock-star girlfriend of Keith Richards. She was, clearly, much more than that — an icon and creator in her own right, the baddest of the bad girls, an incendiary force who helped the Stones \u003cem>become \u003c/em>the Stones. Pallenberg was the one who shook the shy, awkward schoolboys out of the band’s system and helped extricate their inner outlaws.

And you’ve got another good band. The thing is not to try and regurgitate the Beatles. So we’re going to have to be the anti-Beatles,” Richards wrote in his 2010 memoir, \u003cem>Life\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From feathered boas, furs, satins and velvets, Pallenberg’s extravagant and imaginative style quickly became the band’s own. “[Anita and Brian] were both dauntless shoppers and excessively vain. Hours and hours were spent putting on clothes and taking them off again. Heaps of scarves, hats, shirts and boots flew out of drawers and trunks. Unending trying on of outfits, primping and sashaying,” Marianne Faithfull, a close friend of Pallenberg’s, wrote in her 2010 autobiography, \u003cem>Faithfull\u003c/em>. “I would sit mesmerized for hours, watching them preening in the mirror, trying on each other’s clothes. All roles and gender would evaporate in these narcissistic performances where Anita would turn Brian into the Sun King, Francoise Hardy or the mirror image of herself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The contrast of the Stones’ raw, blues-inflected sound with the decadence of their appearance would transform the band into cultural icons, not just pop stars. And unlike artists who come up with new looks for different album cycles, once the Stones began following Pallenberg’s lead, they continued cultivating that singular look for the decades to come. Within the band’s style entity, individual members had nuances — shimmying Mick Jagger, for example, was the more flamboyant of the bunch, while Charlie Watts opted for a more tailored look.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Faithfull, who wrote that Pallenberg was “dazzling, beautiful, hypnotic and unsettling” and that “other women evaporated next to her,” Hogg concedes that, more than the clothes themselves, it was Pallenberg’s spirit that made her such a phenomenon. “Her personality made her style work, she was a free spirit with only her rules to follow or break. She had natural style, you can’t buy that. You instantly knew you were in the company of a caliber woman.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

And you’ve got another good band. The thing is not to try and regurgitate the Beatles. So we’re going to have to be the anti-Beatles,” Richards wrote in his 2010 memoir, \u003cem>Life\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From feathered boas, furs, satins and velvets, Pallenberg’s extravagant and imaginative style quickly became the band’s own. “[Anita and Brian] were both dauntless shoppers and excessively vain. Hours and hours were spent putting on clothes and taking them off again. Heaps of scarves, hats, shirts and boots flew out of drawers and trunks. Unending trying on of outfits, primping and sashaying,” Marianne Faithfull, a close friend of Pallenberg’s, wrote in her 2010 autobiography, \u003cem>Faithfull\u003c/em>. “I would sit mesmerized for hours, watching them preening in the mirror, trying on each other’s clothes. All roles and gender would evaporate in these narcissistic performances where Anita would turn Brian into the Sun King, Francoise Hardy or the mirror image of herself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And unlike artists who come up with new looks for different album cycles, once the Stones began following Pallenberg’s lead, they continued cultivating that singular look for the decades to come. Within the band’s style entity, individual members had nuances — shimmying Mick Jagger, for example, was the more flamboyant of the bunch, while Charlie Watts opted for a more tailored look.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Faithfull, who wrote that Pallenberg was “dazzling, beautiful, hypnotic and unsettling” and that “other women evaporated next to her,” Hogg concedes that, more than the clothes themselves, it was Pallenberg’s spirit that made her such a phenomenon. “Her personality made her style work, she was a free spirit with only her rules to follow or break. She had natural style, you can’t buy that. You instantly knew you were in the company of a caliber woman.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

It just causes, like, little explosions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He couldn’t have picked a worse day for this prank.

With the whole country on edge, the response to the incident at his high school near Lancaster escalated fast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's like SWAT team, hazmat, so many fire trucks, cops roll in, evacuate the school,” he says. “It was just bad.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"WkUBKTaE4l23LXlzWZg2v6hFYqYMLhkj\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vondersaar and his friends were afraid to come clean, so they kept quiet.

He was the \"punk rock jock,\" the captain of the football team with a blue mohawk. His anti-establishment tendencies started around this time, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One day in high school, “I decided to do an experiment with chemicals in a toilet,” he says. “You know, messing around with elemental sodium, reacts a little violently with water. It just causes, like, little explosions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He couldn’t have picked a worse day for this prank. It was April 20, 1999 -- the same day as the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/18/us/columbine-high-school-shootings-fast-facts/\">Columbine High School shooting\u003c/a> in Littleton, Colorado. That tragedy became known as one of the worst school shootings in U.S. history. With the whole country on edge, the response to the incident at his high school near Lancaster escalated fast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It's like SWAT team, hazmat, so many fire trucks, cops roll in, evacuate the school,” he says. “It was just bad.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vondersaar and his friends were afraid to come clean, so they kept quiet.

We were just messing around,” he says. “I got shafted so hard. They made an example of me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He got expelled, wound up in Juvenile Hall, and went to a continuation school. He tried to make the best of a bad situation, plowing through schoolwork. But the experience made him lose faith in institutions like public schools and the justice system.

"content": "\u003cp>Nate Kramer was a tall, quiet college swimmer when he was diagnosed with leukemia. His dad, Vince, says it was the beginning of four difficult years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nate battled through chemotherapy, a fungal infection of the sinuses, 30 operations, bone marrow transplants, a lung infection and the removal of his spleen. Vince says his son kept rallying back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During these ups and downs, although his health was precarious, \u003ca href=\"http://www.wbur.org/kindworld/2016/09/06/kind-world-29-the-heartbeat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nate started working with a music therapist\u003c/a> from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital named Brian Schreck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Brian would come over to the house,” says Nate’s mom, De Ann. “They would play music, they would record music. Brian was really teaching him to play his guitar.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian says Nate loved to play riffs by The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix — but for the most part, Nate’s parents didn’t really know what Nate and Brian were recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the years passed, Nate and Brian grew close. “I think Nate could talk to Brian about things that he didn’t want to talk to us about because it would hurt us,” De Ann says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One day, Nate asked Brian about a project Brian had been working on. As part of his work as a music therapist, Brian had been recording the heartbeats of babies and children near the end of their lives, then layering the rhythmic pulses over melodies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian asked Nate if he would like to record one, and Nate agreed. But Nate’s father wasn’t too keen on the idea of the heartbeat project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was like, ‘OK, is that the only heartbeat I’m going to have left of him?’ ” Vince says. “Um, no thank you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To Vince, it felt like giving up, and he wasn’t ready for that — even a couple weeks later when Nate, then 26, was back in the hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was doing very poorly, and I just actually asked … ‘Nate, do you still want to fight?’ ” Vince says. “And he said to me, ‘Wanna fight.’ That was the last words he said to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nate couldn’t talk after that. Five days later, his mom was up early with him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was just the two of us, and I was laying basically on his chest and listening to him,” De Ann says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[I] could still hear his heartbeat then; that afternoon he had passed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Nate died, Brian gave Vince and De Ann a couple CDs from Nate, but Nate’s death was still too raw for them to press play. They sold their house with its painful memories, packed up their belongings and moved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just over a year later, Vince was at home. It happened to be Father’s Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was rearranging my office, and I came across CDs that had a very unique — some sort of custom cover,” Vince says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he plugged it into the computer, the first thing he heard was, “Happy Father’s Day, old man. Love ya.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was Nate’s voice,” Vince says. “And I was like, ‘What?’ So then I listened to the next song, which was the heartbeat song.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nate had made a CD for his mom, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hearing the heartbeat for me is very bittersweet because of the morning of the day that he passed,” De Ann says. “But I would never give it up. How strong it sounds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vince says the CD will probably never leave his CD player. He has made about half a dozen spare copies of the CD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nate had a very powerful, smooth, slow, rhythmic heartbeat,” Vince says. “It’s Nate. It’s life. I\u003cem> \u003c/em>cannot explain why it just sort of calms me down.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

His dad, Vince, says it was the beginning of four difficult years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nate battled through chemotherapy, a fungal infection of the sinuses, 30 operations, bone marrow transplants, a lung infection and the removal of his spleen. Vince says his son kept rallying back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During these ups and downs, although his health was precarious, \u003ca href=\"http://www.wbur.org/kindworld/2016/09/06/kind-world-29-the-heartbeat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nate started working with a music therapist\u003c/a> from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital named Brian Schreck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Brian would come over to the house,” says Nate’s mom, De Ann. “They would play music, they would record music. Brian was really teaching him to play his guitar.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian says Nate loved to play riffs by The Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix — but for the most part, Nate’s parents didn’t really know what Nate and Brian were recording.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

As part of his work as a music therapist, Brian had been recording the heartbeats of babies and children near the end of their lives, then layering the rhythmic pulses over melodies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian asked Nate if he would like to record one, and Nate agreed. But Nate’s father wasn’t too keen on the idea of the heartbeat project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was like, ‘OK, is that the only heartbeat I’m going to have left of him?’ ” Vince says. “Um, no thank you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To Vince, it felt like giving up, and he wasn’t ready for that — even a couple weeks later when Nate, then 26, was back in the hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was doing very poorly, and I just actually asked … ‘Nate, do you still want to fight?’ ” Vince says. “And he said to me, ‘Wanna fight.’ That was the last words he said to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nate couldn’t talk after that. Five days later, his mom was up early with him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was just the two of us, and I was laying basically on his chest and listening to him,” De Ann says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[I] could still hear his heartbeat then; that afternoon he had passed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Nate died, Brian gave Vince and De Ann a couple CDs from Nate, but Nate’s death was still too raw for them to press play. They sold their house with its painful memories, packed up their belongings and moved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just over a year later, Vince was at home. It happened to be Father’s Day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was rearranging my office, and I came across CDs that had a very unique — some sort of custom cover,” Vince says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he plugged it into the computer, the first thing he heard was, “Happy Father’s Day, old man. Love ya.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was Nate’s voice,” Vince says. “And I was like, ‘What?’ So then I listened to the next song, which was the heartbeat song.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nate had made a CD for his mom, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hearing the heartbeat for me is very bittersweet because of the morning of the day that he passed,” De Ann says. “But I would never give it up. How strong it sounds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vince says the CD will probably never leave his CD player. He has made about half a dozen spare copies of the CD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nate had a very powerful, smooth, slow, rhythmic heartbeat,” Vince says. “It’s Nate. It’s life. I\u003cem> \u003c/em>cannot explain why it just sort of calms me down.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.
