OT: R.I.P. Shock G (Digital Underground) 

Post#1 » by 2010 » Fri Apr 23, 2021 2:30 pm

Gregory Edward Jacobs, known as Shock G, the frontman for the influential hip-hop group Digital Underground, was found dead on Thursday at a hotel in Tampa, Fla. He was 57.

His death was confirmed by the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, which did not provide a cause.

Digital Underground had a string of hits in the early 1990s and introduced its audience to a little-known rapper named Tupac Shakur.

Big fan of Shock G, Sex Packets was in heavy rotation for me back in the day. They were different when everyone was gangster.

Could listen to every track here besides the last one.

RIP Shock
