Him and Guru's death was saddening in the way cause most of us were expecting another Violator Album and a Gang Starr Album and their lives get token away. Wow.
Same here I don't think people understand the magnitude of Chris's success Violator Management had a magnificent roster of superb hiphop talents. Chris was a very influential brother
So was Lighty in his dealings with the Madoff scandal. He lost money because he invested in it and the feds came after him after the 2008 house of cards came crashing down. Had to sell his place in NY because of tax problems. No wonder he ended life.
Whoa whoa whoa...his history goes MAD deep for me SON...this is where I wanna be..hands in the experience from beginning to end. BDP? Jungle Bros? How old ARE you son...lls...
R.I.P. Mr. Lighty.... Seemed like a GREAT guy the few times I got to briefly speak with him. I'm NOT believing this whole suicide shit tho....They better INVESTIGATE a little further.
Wow cool homie never knew that , Yo what's up keep going with ya hip[ hop ment you a long time ago. You were cool and thats what made me become a fan. Peace Haak Blast another emcee in the world. R.I.P Chris Lighty man I would look at a lot of his video clips and follow this brothers tactics.

I recommend the podcast "Mogul" about him if you haven't already heard it.

As soon as I mention a Violator Rapper, Chris Lighty's face pops up in my mind. What a great Manager.

ripr
but he had a nice life, whats the point of taking suicide? I dont get it man.
He was dealing with a lot of things in his own personal life. Dont judge because you don't really know what people go through.
Rip
what did he die of?
Suicide apparently,although very suspicious my brother.sad very sad
what beat is that?
This may sound farfetched, but I honestly believe that he died from his own success.
he was too legit
A Jewish guy is pushing pioneering Rapp industry?
Just about every genre of black music has been pushed to the masses as such
R.I.P 🙏
