He's suffered from diabetes for quite a while.

Didn't know that. Could definitely be the issue. Hopefully he went peacefully.

I feel like everyone has heard this song at some point, they just didn't know who it was.

He had a cameo in MIB II. But don't watch that POS.

Dying from diabetes doesn’t sound peaceful

Do you mean sick, or "ill" like 80s hip hop?

I watched this video, or at least started watching it many months ago here on aw. stopped watching after that unlistenable chorus. tonight I listened all the way through. if this guy made money and a career off of a repertoire like that, then he must have been the luckiest man on earth.*

Go by the name of the King Ad Rock, rock
Super educated I'm smarter than Spock, Spock
Every time you hear me you will agree
Ain't no brother like the K-I-D, d
You know what I mean

He apparently ended up in a diabetic coma more than once over the years.  Ended up having a stroke and was in a hospice before passing.  RIP.
