What is the most tragic hip hop death?

Now the easy answer will be Pac and Biggie, but as sad as it may sound, i wasn't shocked when they died. IMO, the most tragic was the death of JMJ. On the surface there is no ryhme or reason why. He was everything right with hip hop, and the circumstances surrounding it are so clouded.

I'd pick Jam Master Jay out of those 3 (and not just to piss off KJ, Powell & Kev), but I'll have to stew on this for a bit...

Well, it not just limited to these 3. Unfortunately, there's plenty to choose from.

Yeah I'm gonna have to agree with you there. It made no sense whatsoever why someone would want to murder Jam Master Jay and he ABSOLUTELY represented everything good about hip-hop. And I was just as sad about his death as I was about Biggie's or Pac's.

What pisses me off just as much as them being murdered, is that the racist ass police don't seem to care about finding out who murdered them. It makes me sick!

Maybe ODB. His first album is classic, and the second is damn near to me. But something tells me he could have gotten wack real quick.

In hip hop it'd be JMJ. As for other celebs, it's a tie between Michael Jackson and Eddie Guerrero.

Wait...were talking "tragic". My bad. I'm high as fuck. lol

Pimp C and MC Breed...and Proof

Subject: Re: What is the most tragic hip hop death? Wed 30 Dec 2009, 10:50 pm

Big L because he was mistaken for his brother, who was later killed.

Pimp C jumps out for me beside JMJ, Pac, and Big.

I'm kinda offended by the thought of this thread.

Scott La Rock jumps out, too. Killed after (IMO) the best hip hop album of all time; BDP probably would've remained as a group instead of KRS going solo and whatnot

I feel you Jeff because they all were tragic. From MC Trouble to Seagram they were taken to soon.

Guest

Right like, I'm not being a bitch I'm just saying I'm not about to argue how any person's life is of more value than anyone else's.

So I'm just gonna RIP my fave's and be done with it:

Proof
MC Breed
Big Pun
2pac
Yaki Kadafi

The most tragic death would be Professor X.

Dude died of Meningitis. That's a harsh way to go.

Any who were murdered, Pac, Biggie, L, JMJ, and Proof.

Pun's was sad but it definitely symbolizes the current state of American health. These fools need to rap about that.

I heard some study that young Black females get these least amount of exercise in comparison to other girls in the same age group.

I look at overweight and obese people everyday. Just so yall know, age is MOTHERFUCKER! And those extra lbs. will wear you out quicker than a bout with Mike Tyson.

I'ma have to say Eazy E.

And still people haven't learned to strap up.

Pimp C, Soulja Slim and DJ Screw were out of nowhere too.

Also, Sugar Shaft from X Clan.

Actually, X Clan was hit with two deaths:

Professor X - Meningitis
Sugar Shaft - AIDS

So I would think that X Clan as a group would have the most tragic hip hop death.

ODB's death was actually really tragic. That was a long, slow demise of a broken man.
