When you put "Fat" in your name, you've basically doomed yourself to an early grave.

He doesn't look as big as I expected him to be. 53 is too young.
I remember him from this club classic

 

[Jackonfire]

Died doing what he loved. We should all be so lucky

 

[Renard]

Isaac Freeman the third is actually a pretty dope name, he should of kept it for the stage too.

 

[Xuh]

they played this in the gym / MTV europe all the time in the early 2000s
fortunately the gym didn't have any monitors so I didn't have to see this video

(as one of the comments says 'the lyrics were written in ALL CAPS')

53 years old , too young to go

 

[AGGAMEMNON66]

Damn, if only I knew who he was

 

[Fedorgasm]

If the first time you hear of a rapper is when he dies, he probably wasn't a good rapper.

 

[Excelsior]

I felt an uncharacteristic surge of curiosity about a dead rapper, so I clicked the link and got a full page, unskippable ad. Therefore, fuck them and their unknown pseudo star who, judging by his stage name, likely earned his early death visa poor calorie management.

 

[IDGETKTFO]

Does he do that song Scoop there it is?

(how does sherdog not have an animated emoji for the above?)

We do, it just doesn't have the text

 

[William Huggins]

He was famous for a little while in the UK, it was more pop music.....

 

[Jose Beehive]

Last words were “make some noise” I believe.

R.I.P unmistakable entertainer

 

[tomjones]

He had a uk number 1 in 2003, and he was rated as one of the best hype men.

"vax", that's my bet
