Bad Azz | Its Hip Hop

One of Uncle Snoop’s closest friends, DPGC affiliate Bad Azz, passed away earlier this week while being held in a Riverside, California jail on domestic violence charges. He was 43 years old.

Bad Azz was apprehended for the charges of domestic assault on Friday and was scheduled to appear for a court hearing on Tuesday.

Bad Azz’s bail was a mere $10K.

Bad Azz had made songs with the likes of MC Eiht, Mistah F.A.B., Bizzy Bone, The Lady of Rage, Ice Cube, Busta Rhymes, Tupac Shakur and of course, DPG members such as the late Nate Dogg, Kurupt, and Daz as well as Snoop himself.

TheSource.com sends its condolences to the entire Dogg Pound gang for their loss.

West Coast rappers Snoop Dogg, Daz Dillinger and more are in a world of hurt right now. The rap community has come forward to remember late musician Bad Azz.

Over the past few hours, Snoop, Daz and other prominent California entertainers have reacted to BA’s unexpected death.

R.I.P to West Coast MC – BAD AZZ. We were label mates on Priority records back in the day. I haven't spoke to him or seen him around in many years but I remember always thinking he was a good dude, always made me laugh the few times we kicked it. My condolences to his family

RIP Bad Azz, the original one from the Eastside, who put it down with Snoop and the LBC Crew. A legendary freestyler and unsung G-Funk linchpin, who dropped a series of classic lowriding anthems that made every summer BBQ and blunt cruise that much funkier. pic.twitter.com/hdlZolqt91
