MIXVIBES Dj Community old forum

Just saw this online. I saw on Gizmo's site www.skratchdjs.com that Roc Raida hurt his back, but damn. There's also a story on the aforementioned site on the situation, but this is what I read at a different page:

This has just been confirmed through a Busta Rhymes message on Twitter. Busta tweeted a message saying Roc Raida is dead. We are still awaiting final confirmation of this news but artists and colleagues including Da Beatminerz have stated through social media that turntablism Pioneer and instructor Roc Raida has died this weekend.
