Unfortunately, while the rumors of his death earlier this month weren't correct, this time it was in fact true. R.I.P. :'[

Also, here's the Rolling Stone article for reference: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/biz-markie-dead-1191772/

Oh shit. RIP

Aw, his 1 hit's a fun one

Damn, I wasn't even aware he was hospitalized. RIP Biz.

That title is awfully blunt. But yeah, big RIP

Fucking diabetes. RIP Markie.

@Emim: How else was I supposed to word it? That's how a lot of these articles have been titled in the past

Not saying it's necessarily wrong, just how it hit me. Looking at the other articles, it does seem to be a common wording.

oh fuck, this is a hard one, RIP Biz!

Good night sweet biz

Not the Biz! 😔

Rip biz :'(

damn, RIP. this guy had multiple bangers despite his one-hit-wonder status.

saw this coming after the hospice news but was hoping he'd pull through. RIP, Just a Friend on repeat today

Left a real impact on music. Can't say that about very many others.
Spring again and vapors are classic tracks.

RIP

wtf hard rip

Was he related to Raekwon? RIP.

One of those guys who no one ever seemed to have a single bad word to say about- a real rarity in the music industry. Dude would collaborate with pretty much anybody and always gave it his all, and if that isn't worthy of respect idk what is. Hard RIP

RIP to a hip hop legend. The Biz Never Sleeps is a great album.

RIP

Just a Friend stone cold classic for sure

First cassette single I ever bought was "Just a Friend." Fun guy, RIP.

hard rip

rest in peace
