I like that I don't have to read obituaries from across the globe, because we have FReepers who repost them, here.
You were all reading the global obits, right?

After learning of Gangsta Boo’s death, countless artists have paid tribute to the late rapper, including Juicy J, Missy Elliott, El-P, Questlove, Glorilla, Open Mike Eagle, Ty Dolla $ign, A-Trak, Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire, Flo Milli, Clipping., K. Michelle, and Duke Deuce. Never heard of the guy, nor have I heard of a single one of the "artists" who paid tribute.

I’m sure she was the Lynyrd Skynyrd of Rap.

Well, for one thing he might be the longest lived rapper ever, even though he’s now just a dead corpse.

Posted this for all of you so you won’t have to say, who? when their obituaries hit the airwaves.

43 is actually pretty old, in rapper years
To: nickcarraway
what the flock is “female Southern rap music”?
The Southland gave birth to the Blues and Jazz and Country.
Anything else is noise. Usually screeching noise.

The first sentence in the story tells you this performer was a female, so you obviously didn’t read past the headline. Which is fine. I do find it so strange when articles like these are posted on this forum. The only purpose it serves is to feed the racist ramblings of some and vaccine conspiracy theories of others.
