Rapper Paul Frappier, known as Bad News Brown, has been found dead. Bad News Brown's death is a great loss for the entire hip-hop and music community in Quebec and Canada, Frappier's manager Henry Gelot said in the statement. "In addition to being one of the first rappers from Quebec to reach international acclaim, Bad News Brown has certainly left a mark on everyone who knew him."
Originally from Haiti, Frappier lived with an adoptive family in Montreal until his teen years. He played harmonica in the Metro stations before becoming a star. The hip-hop star opened for Snoop Dogg, Kanye West, 50 Cent and Soulja Boy. He released his debut album, Born 2 Sin, last year. He is also in the latest movie from Canadian director Michel Jette called Bumrush, due out this year.
Indeed sad day in hip-hop and will be forever missed.
