'Flava In Ya Ear' Rapper Craig Mack Passes Away at 47

Former MC Craig Mack sadly passed away on March 12th due to heart failure according to New York Daily News. Mack was the first artist to release music (and a hit) on Diddy's Bad Boy Records. The energetic, wild, sometimes offbeat rhymer is best known for his classic hit "Flava In Ya Ear" off his gold-status 1994 album, Project: Funk Da World. Following, in 1997 Mack released Operation: Get Down after leaving Bad Boy Records, which did not keep up to par with his debut album. Mack eventually became a Minister in South Carolina. 

Too many Hip Hop fallen soldiers not making it past 50. It’s time Hip Hop and Health do a long overdue collab to work together on sustaining the lives of our beloved artists. It's time.

Craig Mack, May 10, 1970 – March 12, 2018, Rest in Flava & Style.
