Kaseem 'Ka' Ryan, New York City rapper-producer and firefighter, dies at 52
Briefly

"Ka lived a life of service - to his city, to his community, and to his music," the statement said following his passing.
"My king, my hero, my best friend," she wrote Monday. "You will always be my everything because love like ours lasts forever," said his wife.
Ka was best known for channeling his personal battles and feelings into conceptual songs, including "Conflicted," "Mourn at Night" and "Sirens."
"If I wasn't doing it, then I'll probably be crazy... Kinda purge - that's what each album is," he said about how music served as therapy.
