Malik Taylor, the rapper known as Phife Dawg whose nimble, clever rhymes helped launch A Tribe Called Quest to both commercial and critical success, died Tuesday at the age of 45 from complications resulting from diabetes. Rolling Stone has confirmed the rapper's death.
Taylor had had health issues for years, undergoing a kidney transplant in 2008 to deal with a longtime battle with diabetes. "It's really a sickness," Taylor said in Beats, Rhymes & Life, Michael Rapaport's candid 2011 documentary on the group. "Like straight-up drugs. I'm just addicted to sugar."
"Malik was our loving husband, father, brother and friend," his family said in a statement. "We love him dearly. How he impacted all our lives will never be forgotten. His love for music and sports was only surpassed by his love of God and family."

ATCQ is one of those rare groups that I like every track from. I have favorites of course but I could let it ride on a play list and never feel like I had to skip.
Such a bummer.

Why should that mean it isn't real?

You know, when you're pissing out sugar rocks and getting your feet cut off but still eating sugar... maybe someone bringing that up isnt so disrespectful. I'm sure the doctor did it.
When I have my liver cut out are you going to be there to back me? Didn't think so...
Maybe I come up with some diddlys, some jingles, and then you would like me because I singy song you likey..
Get real.

Do you know how diabetes/kidney problems work? It seems like it was a lifelong issue. This one kid I went to school with died at age 19 from what sounds like similar issues.

I don't think someone who can't even stabilize a healthy diet should be labeled as "influential"

Yeah, no one with personal issues can make any contribution to history, you'll never find anyone like that in the books.
