A cause of death has yet to be announced, and no further details surrounding the nature of his passing have been unveiled at this time.
R&B group Dru Hill’s Digital Black confirmed the loss in a social media post on Sunday, August 13, mournfully expressing his grief and disbelief over the situation.
“Man can’t believe this RIH Magoo damn big bro wasnt ready for this at all #superfriends,” the Instagram upload was captioned, alongside a photo of the cover art from 1997’s Welcome to Our World album by Timbaland and Magoo, which featured an in-focus image of the rapper, and the super-producer blurred in the background.
