Hip-Hop just a lost a legend...
UTFO's Kangol Kid, who was diagnosed with stage-4 colon cancer in February, has passed away.
The 55-year old rapper and pioneer recently had a visit from LL Cool J to lift his spirits, but he ultimately lost his battle with cancer.
Once news hit social media, a lot of other hip-hop legends showed their respects for the UTFO member.
Rest in peace, Kangol Kid.
