RIP! FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW WHO HE IS!

Eric Breed (b. in Flint, Michigan - d. November 22, 2008)], better known as MC Breed was a Flint, Michigan-based rapper best known for his singles "Ain't No Future in Yo Frontin'", which peaked at #66 on the Billboard Hot 100 [2], and "Gotta Get Mine", featuring 2Pac, that made it to #6 on the Hot Rap Singles. [2]

Breed is also known as the first commercially successful rapper to come out of the Midwest. MC Breed's first album was released with rap group DFC and was entitled MC Breed & DFC for independent record label, SDEG Records. His solo debut was 1992's 20 Below, after which he released 1993's The New Breed. He would go on to have a very extensive discography and have a very long career that was at times successful, but he never fully broke into the mainstream. His highest charting album was 1994's Funkafied, which peaked at #106 on the Billboard Hot 200. Through his career he would align himself with various rap scenes. Early in his career with DFC him and the group were rather independent, as one of the first groups out of the midwest. However, later in his career he aligned himiself with the West Coast, taking on more of a G-Funk sound [4] and befriending West Coast rapper Too ***. Still later, he realigned himself once again with the Dirty South for 1995's Big Baller [5] On April 2, 2008, Breed was arrested in Flint, Michigan after repeatedly failing to keep up his child support payments. His bail was set at $18,000.00

On September 5, 2008 the rapper was hospitalized and placed on life-support, after he collapsed when his kidneys failed, during a game of pickup basketball. On November 22, 2008, Breed reportedly passed away in his sleep.

RIP to him and his family. He finally seen his dream, as far as painting the white house black;persay,"as quoted in one of his songs." I wish his family the best through these hard times, and I feel he help opened the door for informative rap that sent a message. I still to this day pull out my cassette tapes and listen to 80's and 90's music. music now is only made for money purposes. I remember going to free concerts back in the day, THE GOOD OLE' DAYS!!!!

@lefemme410

Neva was cuz. (just had to chime in cause that was my SONG back in the day, lol.)

On topic: I'm so sorry for his family's loss. I don't want to speculate that it was AIDS that did him in, but kidney failure, after repeated health issues, is one of the last symptoms of that disease; along with pneumonia and liver failure.

@ThaUnknownOne

I'm in total agreement. The 90's was the best for hip-hop. There was sooo much to choose from whether it was uplifting music or music from the street side of things. Now, it's just *** like Soulja Boy and the rest of these here today, gone tomorrow cats.

You speak the truth.
