"The Humpty Dance" was my jam back in, what, 1993? 1994?

Crazy time.

Uggggggg. Can someone edit the title? He was 57 not 67.

1989.

Saw this earlier. Sad news.

Was it THAT long ago? Crud, I am old.

Aw man!! A lot of my favorite rappers have died in the last month or so. I LOVED Digital Underground and The Humpty Dance was just the start of it. This really bums me out!

The one that put the satin in ya panties.

Digital Underground is where 2Pac got his start. This is sad news I first heard of them when I watched Nothing But Trouble starring Chevy Chase and Demi Moore. They show up at the end. I wonder if his death is related to getting busy in a Burger King bathroom, they can get pretty nasty.

I'm guessing he choked on lumpy oatmeal.

A while back they were doing a "celebrity birthday" bit on the radio and they said Flea was 68 but he was just turning 58. The really pathetic part is nobody on the air caught the mistake and said anything about it.

I'm sad, DU was the shit. Who's next, Biz Markie? DON'T TAKE THE BIZ!

UPDATE! Drug overdose was the cause of his untimely demise. A deadly (duh) cocktail of both illicit and legal drugs it seems.
