Anybody who knows me already knows the deal so I won’t get into it. I just woke up and found out about the news, it’s been all over Twitter and Facebook ,when I saw the headline I immediately thought so that’s why my neighbor has been bumping Michael Jackson all day. And now every whip that drives by is bumping the king. He will be missed but never forgotten especially not by me.

Rapper Dolla Murdered Just Two Hours After His First Tweets

Chozen — Tue, 19 May 2009 12:23:24 +0000

About 13 hours ago, hip hop artist Dolla signed up for Twitter. He sent out a couple of tweets and presumably left to go to the Beverly Center in Los Angeles. I know this because he was shot and killed there shortly thereafter.
One of the trending topics on Twitter right now is “RIP Dolla” and hundreds more messages are being directed at Dolla’s now-dormant account. It seems that he’s gained several hundred followers since his death and a lot of people are using the account to pay their respects to him.

R.I.P. to Dolla, I did allot of coverage on Dolla when he was on the come up last year and in 07. Can’t believe I actually found this story on TechCrunch, why has no one covered this story yet?

Andre Romelle Young Jr., the son of rapper and pioneering hip-hop producer Dr. Dre, was found dead in his Woodland Hills, California, home Saturday morning, according to Dre’s representative. He was 20 years old.
An autopsy was conducted on Young’s body Monday, but a cause of death has not yet been determined, pending the results of a toxicology report, a representative for the Los Angeles County Coroner’s office told MTV News. The coroner’s rep confirmed that an Andre Romelle Young Jr. passed away Saturday, but was uncertain if he was Dre’s son; Dre’s rep confirmed that information Tuesday (August 26).
Young was discovered in his bed at around 10:30 a.m. Saturday by his mother, who attempted to rouse him, the coroner’s spokesperson said. Young was unresponsive, so she called paramedics, who responded to the scene. After their efforts to revive him failed, he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Our Condolences to Dre and his family, thats horrible another one added to the R.I.P. list…..

R.I.P. To Isaac Hayes Who Has Passed Away At The Age Of 65

Omar West — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:51:56 +0000

On August 10, 2008, Hayes’ wife found him on the floor near a treadmill inside his home located just east of Memphis, Tennessee. A Shelby County, Tennessee sheriff’s deputy responded to Hayes’ home. He was taken to Baptist Memorial Hospital in Memphis, where he was pronounced dead at 2:08pm, at the age of 65. The cause of death was not immediately known.

This is such a tragic and twisted series of events that Isaac Hayes passed two days after Bernie Mac did being that they were suppose to be co-starring in a new movie along side Samuel L Jackson.

Bernie Mac Has Passed Away At The Age of 50 (R.I.P)

Comedian and Chicago native Bernie Mac died early Saturday morning from complications due to pneumonia, his publicist confirmed.
Mac, 50, had been hospitalized for about a week at Northwestern Hospital, according to his spokeswoman. A few years ago, Mac disclosed that he suffered from sarcoidosis, a rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in tissue, most often in the lungs.

Our condolences goes out to the Mac family and friends, this is definitely unexpected there wasn’t even any news about him being sick. He was most definitely the funniest of all the Kings Of Comedy. We would love to give you a full rundown of all Bernie Mac’s achievements and accolades but Wikipedia does a better job.

R.I.P he will be missed………
