    Damn! This was the guy that did "Ski Mask Way" right? Always liked that one.

    That's awful.

    Holy sh*t, is this for real?

    I used to look up to that dude as a great DJ and hollered at him anytime I'd see him out spinning in Detroit.

    This is really a shame if true.

    He was a young guy, too.

    Holy shit. This is really out of the blue. Dude was really getting a lot of work as a producer...definitely on the come-up.

    The couple times I met him, he was a super cool dude. He even swung by my weekly the day after he did a gig in the Bay just to check it out.

    I hope this isn't true. But if it is...RIP.

    I hope this doesnt sound callous to be recommending music on a thread like this, but his beat for AZ off AWOL ("City of Gods") was seriously gorgeous.

    Nah, I don't think so--at a time like this, it is entirely appropriate to celebrate somebody's life's work.

    the last thing i had heard from him was the Trick Daddy cut he was producing. I was really looking forward to seeing dude blow up over the next few years.

    and only 27 years old:

    here's a write up i caught from another board

    Any chance you can post it? I was just listening to "Ski Mask Way" the other day and thinking I need to hear more of this dude's hip hop beats. It's a shame. RIP.

    thats so sad. respect to his friends and family. Im sure the people close to him are wondering what they could have done to prevent it and that really sucks. the hardest thing not to do is try to ask why.

    R.I.P.

    Ski Mask Way beat was dope no doubt. He also got some dope baile funk tracks. Also heard this mixtape he did with all brazilian mcs, good stuff. Would've liked to hear more from him in the future... RIP.
