Can anyone confirm this? I've heard this news spreading today, but still haven't read anything on black & white. No one seems to know if its really true. If its true that's really too bad! He's had a large impact on a lot of people. RIP

no he aint

 

heres an extract from an interview with him in this months XXL

 

XXL: Were you really in a coma?

JD: Nah, man. The rumors were like, Jay Dee is dead and all that, but I was just in the hospital for, like, two months. I was in ICU, with all types of tubes, man. It was crazy.

 

XXL: What exactly happened?

JD: I went overseas for two weeks and was eatin' all this crazy-ass food. As soon as I got back, I had the flu or something, and I had to check myself into the hospital. Then they (doctors) [found] out I had a ruptured kidney and was malnourished from not eatin' the right kinda food. It was real simple, but it ended with me being in the hospital.

 

XXL: Damn, that must've cut into production time.

JD: Oh, nah. My boy brought a sound system and some vinyl through, so I was in the hospital making beats.

Naw i'm only joking i dont even know who he is. It's not really something i should be joking about. I'm an awful person. I deserve bum cancer, or something equally as bad..

Don't know who he is?

 

Have you ever listened to Tribe Called Quest, Slum Village, JayLib, Medaphoar, etc.? That's just just to name a few.
