It appears he was also a prophetic street poet.

When you fight against me...BROTHER
You're allowing them to win
When you fight against me...BROTHER
You commit the ultimate sin

You don't only hurt me...BROTHER
You hurt yourself as well
You don't only hurt me...BROTHER
Your sons will live in hell

I am not the enemy...BROTHER
Take a look and see
I am not the enemy...BROTHER
You look just like me

Let us work together...BROTHER
For can you not see
That if you fight against me...BROTHER
That's the end of you and me.

Love Yourself - Stop the Violence!

From the website:

"It is with this spirit that, in 1994, James went on to reason with major corporations like Toys "R" Us and MTV. With Toys "R" Us, James took issue with their sale of toy guns that looked like real weapons because kids were mistakenly shot and killed by police officers who thought the toy guns were real weapons. "Kids are taking toy guns and spray painting them to look real because they are scared. They have no power, and out there on the streets, a gun, whether real or fake, gives them a false sense of power."

This man is a moron. Kids were robbing stores with toy guns. Instead of dealing with the problem at the source (kids with no morals) he gets Toys R Us to lose the toys.
