Over the years it seems that Senseless violence has become way to familiar in Hip Hop. Just recently we lost Dj Megatron to a "Random" act of violence. Its starting to seem like every month we have a remembrance for one of our fallen brothers. Today we would like to shine light on Lost Boyz Member Freaky Tah. Some would say he didn't rap, he was just a hype man, but if you don't understand what a good hype man does, then 9 times out of 10 You don't understand Hip Hop. Freaky Tah's adlibs, and antics on stage definitely were one of the best next to Flava Flav, Spliff Star, and of course the great Eddie Cheeba. Take some time check out the video below. Read up on the wiki info below the vid, and remember it's bigger than music. We must support and remember all those who have given to this great art form called hip hop.
Salute.
