Disco Inferno

Still trying to wrap my head around this bizarre news: sound architect Disco D reportedly committed suicide Monday night:


Details regarding his death are still sketchy, but sources close to Disco D told BallerStatus.com that he had recently divorced from his Brazilian wife and was having a hard time coping with the split.

The producer had over 10 years of experience in the music industry beginning his career in the dance scene in Detroit, Michigan.

In 2005, he produced the track “Ski Mask Way” for 50 Cent’s Massacre album, which put him on the hip-hop map.(Ballerstatus)


May God bless his soul, and grant his family the fortitude to pull through this inexplicable tragedy.
