Some very sad news, poetic aka Grym Reaper did pass away yesterday at 10:40am e.s.t., he will be greatly missed. this is a great loss, not only to Gravediggaz, but to underground hip-hop in gereral. my condolences to his family and his wife dee dee. this was announced yesterday on hot 97 by mister cee and he played a few gravediggaz tracks as a tribute.
(poetic aka Grym Reaper of gravediggaz's condition has worsened greatly. if you don't know, he was diagnosed with colon cancer 2 years ago. recently his kidneys have failed and the doctors have given him a day to live (from the 13th) but they believe he won't live at long. he may have already died even (lets hope not). to help out his family, please send a cheque to this address in the name of anthony berkeley or poetic:
meridian entertainment 1 orchard st. jersey city, nj 07306
this is not to raise money for his cure but to help out poetic and his wife, dee dee, to pay for the huge medical bills)

Fuck, that's terrible... I heard he was ill but, fuck... That 1st Gravediggaz album has got to be one of my favourite records ever. At least he got to make a permanent record of himself before he left earth...
