MoeLarryCurly Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1564396/20070710/krs_one.jhtml Jul 10 2007 10:40 AM EDT Randy Hubbard Parker, KRS-One's Son, Dead At 23 In Apparent Suicide Rapper's son suffered from 'severe depression.' By Shaheem Reid Randy Hubbard Parker, son of rapper KRS-One, was found dead in his Atlanta apartment over the weekend in an apparent suicide. He was 23. Simone Parker, KRS-One's wife and Randy's mother, said Tuesday (July 10) in a statement that her son's death was related to "severe depression." The family is planning a private memorial service in Florida on July 18, which would have been Randy's 24th birthday. Plans for an August memorial service in New York are under way. The Fulton County Medical Examiner's office said Parker died on Friday from a gunshot wound to the head, and listed the cause of death as suicide. KRS-One was on tour overseas with producer Marley Marl and was not available for comment at press time, but the statement conveyed his and Simone Parker's appreciation to everyone who has offered condolences.

justaname Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 R.I.P dude probably listened to too much hiphop teaching and couldn't take it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mauler5150 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I am tempted to make a quip about people who preach about the good of hiphop but since this involves suicide I have to say what a shame. Suicide is fucked up in any instance, I don't care who you are, rapper or no rapper. But if 50-cent killed himself I would celebrate.

Bojangles Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 funny, sad thread... but fucking funny. saw this guy speak once... dude was on some outerspace intergalactic halle boppe comet-type universal hip-hop utopia shit. i think bojangles saw him once too and engaged in an argument with him about his theories of selling out. clarification bojangles? anywho... rip to his kiddo. Yup. He said to an auditorium full of people to "Do whatever it takes to get money." And went on from there to say lots of other things relating to selling out. I'm not against selling out myself. I did it a long time ago. I'm against people who do it and hide under a veil of self-righteousness like he was doing. I guess his Son was the real blastmaster huh? ...Too soon? Man, I'm a jerk. RIP big homie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
