So I found out you can access Magoo’s full audio interview from William and Mary college on Mobile. Just not on desktop versions. Also, see below for .. Song Picks: Hold On (Feat Wyclef) Insane Up Jumps The Boogie Clock Strikes (Album Version) Indian Flute Luv 2 Luv Ya
@@lessence2226 De is EXTREMELY private that's why you don't see a lot of stories about him. He loves his privacy he and Magoo were a lot alike (not into the fame). Sounds weird but I honestly wouldn't want a story. Reason being is there's not a lot of info about him and I would hate to see someone just make up lies. I know Jeury wouldn't do that and do his research for sure ❤ I have love and respect for the family and wouldn't wanna see that happen to anyone honestly.
the thing is with Devante he was mad popular .Fans were doing too much. Throwing their panties ,screaming ,telling him they wanted his babies ,that can send a man mental@@lessence2226
Luv 2 luv ya is one of my favorite songs with Magoo & Aaliyah on it, love this was a time & space that can never be duplicated, amazing all this talent was collaborating!!!
Melvin is my uncle. You did your research. I wish my uncle felt more appreciated when he was alive. He hated the entertainment life. One thing about my uncle, he always been a private person, all anyone could do was ASSUME. Aaliyah death really did shattered him. I remember like it was yesterday, as a kid when this happened to Aaliyah and I called him smh I feel the pain all over again just writing this. Ppl loved him, I wish he would’ve got the respect and love shown to him in his life form. Smh RIP Uncle Melvin. Thank you, for covering this.
Melvin was my uncle too. My favorite unc at that. I just hope aunt Tudee is doing much better. Send her my love and rip Unc melvin. Nice reading your post cousin Tia. Hope to see you guys soon.
Your Uncle was amazing! I wanted to see more of Melvin when he was around. He was such a force in his genre, and I think people should just give him his flowers for that, for real. Rest in Peace Magoo...❤️
Without Magoo there would be no Timb. It’s interesting how sometimes there’s people who are pivotal in somebody else’s success. But to be humble about that, that’s a good soul right there.
His verse in ‘Luv 2 Luv U’ is my all time favorite! His wordplay was crazy, he was definitely underrated but very much so cherished and loved by his true fans. Wish we had more music from him! RIP Magoo 🕊️
While these internet trolls claim that he was so wack because he wouldn't participate in the industry's dysfunctional mess, lets you know you he did the right thing. Yes leaving social media and staying true to yourself. Entertainers don't have to prove anything to the public. Just enjoy their art and stop worrying about their personal lives. Magoo was a private person. There is nothing wrong with that! A lot of society are weirdo's! #ripmagoo 1972-2023
THANKYOUUUUUU, ANOTHER BOMB COMMENT!! Entertainers don't owe ya'll nothing, whether it be through social media etc, but ya'll have become soooooo entitled cus many celebs put their life out there so you just expect ALL of them to😂🤦🏾♀️🙄! Pls log off and get help! We need to get back to the old times where celebs for the most part were MYSTERIOUS , but you knew them for their art! NOTHING ELSE!!!
I got emotional watching this. Back in the day, me and my friends were HUGE Timbaland, Magoo, Aaliyah, and Missy fans. I just remember how their records made us feel and dance.
Goodness. The trauma of having been stabbed by both parents at such a young age, I can't start to imagine what he must've felt at the time. May his soul rest in peace and his legacy lives on
I appreciate it fam! I’m happy to tell his story. And yeah, this is only half of what I planned to include. You’d be surprised how much I had to remove from this doc due to copyright. But his story needed to be told!
Magoo was the side of Hip-hop of just being the cool dude that everyone wanted around. People love to down talk him because he wasn't trying to be the hardest rapper out. I'm glad he didn't preach poison. R.I.P Magoo🕊️
R.i.p its crazy how people tried to diss him he was a good rapper for the fun rap he wanted to give the world. I liked his style and people always talking but dont even got the courage to live they own dreams crazy.
Thank you for showing Magoo his propers man he deserved it. He wasn't wack, he was positive,and he didn't sound like Q- tip, he did his thing and it was perfect with Tim. R.I.P. Melvin.
Magoo was way ahead of his time. People who hate on unique people are boring, late and lazy. It takes a lot to express yourself authentically. Grateful Magoo shared his talent, he enhanced my young mind and Black art. MAY HE REST WELL 🕊
You on point because I really don’t remember hearing that he passed until watching this. RIP we grew up on they music, so he definitely was dope to us!!
Like Magoo's Aunt, there are relatives in our family who will step in, fill a void, and serve as a surrogate mother or mentor. My mother would call it a "ram in the bush." It's a biblical allusion. I'm glad she was there to show him the love, support, compassion, and guidance all children deserve. 🖤
Self confidence does have a lot to do with exposure, just being in the circles of greatness & inspiration was a spectacular place to be while still trying to exist without comparison to QTip
No matter what music fans thought of Magoo. No way was he the worst rapper ever. You could put Silkk the Shocker up there, Soulja Boy, Lil B, 6ix9ine and so many other's who deserves that #1 spot for worst rapper. However, Magoo did not deserve that. RIP
He used to be active on Twitter prior to the pandemic (2018-2019) where he and I interacted a few times on current events..He seemed cool and very personable..then he disappeared around 2020/2021.. I even sent out a social media S.O.S. just inquiring about his whereabouts but never got a response. His Twitter account appeared to have been deleted around this time as well..When his death was announced, I just assumed he was going thru some serious health issues that led to the disappearance…RIP Magoo.
Why would people clown Magoo for having the same voice pitch as somebody else...that is stupid as hell...People always looking for SOMETHING negative to say about somebody. I don't care what nobody say, Magoo had TALENT. It was evident. You have to WANT to not see the talent to not see his...Some people just get off on putting people down I guess...
This popped up randomly on my feed and I clicked SO quickly. I really liked Magoo's lyrical style. He solidified himself in Hip Hop history. I didn't even know he passed. Thank you for this.
Dude 😎,Jeury, you are aceing this RUclips thing, your unfortunate demise series is really helping you take off, you help give the people you talk about a voice and bring true respect and acknowledgement to their life 🧬 and their craft. God bless you and all the subscribers too 🙏 p.s. their song Indian flute is one of the best songs ever.
I met dude at he was driving a GS 300 or 400 silver in color and he was playing gospel music!! So to hear these Goofies say he was a lame makes sense man was on Gods time RIP
I just remember being excited as a kid every time anybody from their crew dropped a new video. They made great music and they all seemed to genuinely care for each other. B.A.P. Magoo 🌹 #respect
Maganooo!!!! Up jumps da boogie stays in heavy rotation it's one of my faves. It's sad Magoo received so much hate you never heard anything bad about him ppl are soooo weird! I got nothing but respect for him staying true RIH 🕊️
This makes me so sad😢 I loved Magoos collaborations with Timbaland. That was a big part of my childhood. Sad to know he didn't get the recognition he deserved in life. He seemed like a kind and gentle soul. RIP to him, he will definitely be missed🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great job on this. I was born and raised in Virginia and Magoo deserves his flower 🎉 and thank you for doing deep dive. i was thinking about an artist Jenni Riviera I wanted to know more about she had a tragic death from a plane crash too.
I'm from VA Beach, and I remember hearing Magoo announcing his retirement from the industry on the radio(103 Jamz ❤). I was soooooo hurt, but I thought he would always come back. I'm glad he left us with timeless music, to never forget him. RIP Maganoo❤.
He didn't deserve to be on the list for the 50, worst rappers, maybe I'm saying that from a fan standpoint but I thought he was a unique voice in the industry and I would have loved to see what became of him, loved and forever missed
Effed with magoo heavy!! One of the most unique voices and a solid lyricist imo. I wish i would've heard more from him. He was relevant at a time you couldn't hear what you wanted when you wanted. Ahead of his time. Rwg
OMG! I LOVE Magoo. Why were people hating on him? I loved their music (Timbaland, Magoo, Missy, Genuwine, Aaliyah). I had always thought he was so humble. So sad when he passed.
So glad you covered this 🥺Literally so upset that his passing got barely any acknowledgement from the hip hop blogs 😭 the way I didn’t hear about him passing until a couple months ago. RIP MAGOO 🕊️
The heck! He freaking passed 3 months ago! Lord have mercy. Ma? I adored Timberland and Magoo and Missy heck all of them in up jump the boogie. Had on Repeat and I loved T&M full length cd. God I think I was 12 that had to be like 1997, I’m play the album over and over. only 50 years old barely. Damn heart breaking. So many amazing song writers and performers no longer with us. I feel so bad.
Great work as always..Timb and Magoo's collaborations were always freshly unique..Up Jumps the Boogie got played like crazy on the radio . Can you do Jesse Powell??
I really miss this whole era 🥺💔❤❤❤ These were the days! No other era like the 90s, especially for us, imo. It's crazy how time flies and how things have changed. On another note, I never knew that Magoo's parents were a busive to him as a child. What the heck could a 3 year old do to make you want to 🔪 him?!? 😳😳😳 Love to Love You is one of my favorite songs ever. Super Dupa Fly is in my top five favorite albums & Beep Me 911 feat. Magoo is my favorite song on it. His verse took the song to another level. RIP Mr. Magoo 💕 🕊️ 💕 🕊️ the real ones know and we love ya! 💪🏾
This video got my eyes well up, and I’m a grown man. I love Magoo with all my heart. My favourite track of his is Cop That Shit with Timbaland. He killed that track for me. Rest in Power king ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 21 gun salute
I'm glad that he reached 50 but NEVER EXPECTED him to pass right after! Of course the video "Up jumps da boogie" was my introduction to him. He wasn't super lyrical AT ALL but he wasn't trying to take himself too seriously which was ok. He was the fun and uplifting type of rapper to me. He was one of the ⚓ s of the Super friends collective! 2023 IS A ROUGH YEAR FOR LEGENDS TO PASS AWAY 😢!! What a loss! Rip Magoo, Aaliyah, Static/Major and Irish Grinstead(of 702)!! Rip to all😔🙏!
That list was so disrespectful to the late Magoo! The brotha was talented and had the most unique sound. These current artists wish they had 10% of the talent this brotha had! I enjoyed his collaborations through the years when I was in junior high/high school. Much respect to him and may his soul rest easy now!
I didn't know he passed. In 97 I played the heck out of Love To Love Ya...Magoo was dope in my opinion. I never thought about how he and tip had similar voices til I saw this. I never thought about them in the same space. As for Talib Kwali. He should have kept his mouth shut.
Magoo was not wack. I never though he sounded like Q-Tip. His flow and elivery are way different. Sorry to hear he passed away but lgad to know he had peace in his business endeavors away from music.
He said it right, most of the people saying he was wack will never touch 25% of the success he has. RIP Melvin, this world doesn't deserve a soul like yours. 'Here We Come' is a core memory for me
ive been asking missy in comments online for years about Magoo and she paid me dust every time.. .I just find it odd. magoo should of gotten his flowers. I enjoyed him asa rapper. very fun and witty. i never thought of qtip when listening to Magoo so that part was wild to me. rest in heaven Magoo
I’ll never forget Magoo! I remember buying his first CD with Timbaland. Then bought Tim’s Bio cd. His style was one of a kind. Definitely a genuine person from what I know. My condolences to his family and will always be a fan for life!!
You know you doing something right when you got haters. And in this video It's very Evident. R.I.P Magoo, I still to this day at age 36 bump "Beep Me 911" and many many more of him and Tim's Hits.
Magoo was so underappreciated in the industry. He was such a talented artist. To this day Indecent Proposal 2002 was one of my most fav albums Timbaland and Magoo did together. RIP❤
I hope he knew before his death that he had those of us who appreciated his music. My favorite Magoo track is 'Up jump the boogie.' It was his bars that I looked forward to. He was smooth with it and didn't have to come with political hooray. It was go with it energy. It made you feel good. So, his mission was accomplished. The mere fact that he had the same range as Q but found a way to stand out on his own is clever and shows he had skill & talent. Boo to all of those that faulted him for that. smh! I had always wondered what happened to him and was very saddened hearing about his death on SM. Another one, gone too soon. But thank goodness he didn't die broke and unloved. Thanks for dropping this tribute. He deserved it and all the loving words from his listeners. RIP Melvin 'Magoo' Barcliff. (*Aaliah and Static Major*) You all are so missed.
The level of respect shown in your delivery and providing this information is amazing. You're doing an amazing job and so tactful and so compassionate and kind. Thank you!
Damn I appreciate this video. Growing up as a kid of the 90’s there whole camp (timbaland magoo missy aaliyah playa and ginuwine)was my favorite! The industry can be a dark place for artist. I always wondered what happened to him. This brought some clarity. May his soul rest peacefully 🕊️
I was always a huge fan of Magoo. He was truly unique and talented ❤ it's sad he wasn't appreciated 😞 we're birthday twins and my voice is to most people different cuz its high pitched. He was definitely awesome and always be remembered ❤❤❤ 🙏🏿🕊️
Never heard anybody call magoo garbage in 97. Everybody was bumping welcome to our world. That’s just some GEN Z hater sh!t, they complain about everything 😂
Damn, Magoo didn't deserve the disrespect. He was a competent, fun rapper who always understood the assignment and brought the right vibe to any given song. He wasn't wack, his style was just simplistic. He was a dope "role player" rapper, to borrow a sports term. RIP Magoo. You made your mark on Hip Hop man.

He had a cool voice
Prob held down by Timbaland
His voice was original and that’s what made him unique I miss these days it was so original💯
RIP Mag-an-oo! Dude was unique, loyal and stayed true to himself. Can't say that about many in the music industry!! 🕊️
I still be at work listening to Up Jumps The Boogie and olot from
Their first album ❤
Damn. All the artists from my time are leaving us 😭
Unique? Dude sounded like QTip
You didn't suck his balls! How you know him???
The best Ghostface clone❤
Without Magoo there would be no Timb. It’s interesting how sometimes there’s people who are pivotal in somebody else’s success. But to be humble about that, that’s a good soul right there.
Abusive parents make me sick 😡 may he rest in peace 🙏🏽
Timbabland and Magoo made some straight up bangers back in the day. Rest in peace Magoo.
R.I.P Magoo, Aaliyah and Static Major. May your beautiful souls rest in eternal peace
I used to love his voice and his flow. RIP Magoo
His verse on "Beep me 911" never gets old.
Facts
My nicca it never does 💯💯💯💯💯💯
my fave!
His verse in ‘Luv 2 Luv U’ is my all time favorite! His wordplay was crazy, he was definitely underrated but very much so cherished and loved by his true fans. Wish we had more music from him! RIP Magoo 🕊️
I know! I featured a FULL acapella breakdown of “Bird is The Word”.. with beatboxing and everything.. but the copyright lords blocked it 😢

Jeury you are the G.O.A.T. for this biography of Magoo there isn't any full bios of Magoo online and that's ashame but I appreciate you king.
I appreciate it fam! I’m happy to tell his story. And yeah, this is only half of what I planned to include. You’d be surprised how much I had to remove from this doc due to copyright. But his story needed to be told!
Magoo was 🔥 idgaf what nobody say he was my childhood may he rest in peace
Magoo was the side of Hip-hop of just being the cool dude that everyone wanted around. People love to down talk him because he wasn't trying to be the hardest rapper out. I'm glad he didn't preach poison. R.I.P Magoo🕊️
I love your name😊
I don’t care what anyone says, I loved Magoo’s music!!! I played up jumps the boogie out when I was in high school, loved it. RIP Magoo
I didn't even know he died 😢 damn I'm late.🤦🏾♀️
Magoo was more than just a talented performer, seem to me that he wanted to see everybody win. His story is incredible.
Man up jumps the Boogie will always be my shit as a child... his voice is legendary.
Magoo is part of the soundtrack of my youth! I pray his soul is at peace 🙏🏽
R.i.p its crazy how people tried to diss him he was a good rapper for the fun rap he wanted to give the world. I liked his style and people always talking but dont even got the courage to live they own dreams crazy.
Thank you for showing Magoo his propers man he deserved it. He wasn't wack, he was positive,and he didn't sound like Q- tip, he did his thing and it was perfect with Tim. R.I.P. Melvin.
A lot of rappers die in their 50's DMX, G Shock, Magoo, MF Doom, Black Rob. This is very sad.
Shock G
A lot of them die in their 20's
Magoo was way ahead of his time. People who hate on unique people are boring, late and lazy. It takes a lot to express yourself authentically. Grateful Magoo shared his talent, he enhanced my young mind and Black art. MAY HE REST WELL 🕊
You on point because I really don’t remember hearing that he passed until watching this. RIP we grew up on they music, so he definitely was dope to us!!
Like Magoo's Aunt, there are relatives in our family who will step in, fill a void, and serve as a surrogate mother or mentor. My mother would call it a "ram in the bush." It's a biblical allusion. I'm glad she was there to show him the love, support, compassion, and guidance all children deserve. 🖤
Self confidence does have a lot to do with exposure, just being in the circles of greatness & inspiration was a spectacular place to be while still trying to exist without comparison to QTip
Up jumps da boogie will forever be the jam 🔥
Yes that song is a vibe!!!!

Wow had no idea he died until I watch this video. Good job on showing the work he's done while on this earth. R.I.P
Same!
Loved Magoo. Such a unique voice.❤ Had no idea that he had passed.
He used to be active on Twitter prior to the pandemic (2018-2019) where he and I interacted a few times on current events..He seemed cool and very personable..then he disappeared around 2020/2021..

Thank you for your comment! Completely agree bruh!!! I trust he is at peace now with God❤
"Up jumps the boogie" still on my mfkn playlist. Magoo went in on that junt 💯❤️👑💪🏿🫡
😢
clock strikes.
🎶 we gone show you how we party 🎶
Not to mention this was the only song from the duo that went #1 on the Billboard Rap Singles Chart.
That Tim and Magoo album was 🔥back in da day!
With his voice he could have been big in this new generation at 50 years old!!!! Str8 facts 💯
Magoo was hard asf…his flow was full of metaphors and double entendres
Too deep and clever for most.
This popped up randomly on my feed and I clicked SO quickly. I really liked Magoo's lyrical style. He solidified himself in Hip Hop history. I didn't even know he passed. Thank you for this.

Maganooo!!!! Up jumps da boogie stays in heavy rotation it's one of my faves. It's sad Magoo received so much hate you never heard anything bad about him ppl are soooo weird! I got nothing but respect for him staying true RIH 🕊️
They were just haters. Probably envied the way he lived his life.
@@peppermintpetty6766yep the fact that he was peaceful and they weren’t
Timbaland, Magoo, Missy, Aaliyah, and Ginuwine were the "IT" crew! Rest in Heaven Magoo, you will be missed. This one hit hard 💔🙏😔
I almost just joined him love; Because baby girl u are Drop Dead Gorgeous!
You beautiful Queen 😍
#UOneGorgeousGoddess 😘
Ginuwine story up now!
This makes me so sad😢 I loved Magoos collaborations with Timbaland. That was a big part of my childhood. Sad to know he didn't get the recognition he deserved in life. He seemed like a kind and gentle soul. RIP to him, he will definitely be missed🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great job on this. I was born and raised in Virginia and Magoo deserves his flower 🎉 and thank you for doing deep dive. i was thinking about an artist Jenni Riviera I wanted to know more about she had a tragic death from a plane crash too.
I was watching this to get an update on him, not having any idea he had died. How disrespectful this industry has been towards him. 😢 RIP Magoo.
I'm from VA Beach, and I remember hearing Magoo announcing his retirement from the industry on the radio(103 Jamz ❤). I was soooooo hurt, but I thought he would always come back. I'm glad he left us with timeless music, to never forget him. RIP Maganoo❤.
I found the songs "Up jumps the Boogie " and " Luv 2 luv u" to be pretty catchy. It a shame to lose nice talent too early. RIP to Magoo.
RIP Magoo. You gave me jams to dance to and you were different from the rest! 🕊️ thank you! 🙏🏽
🤎🤎💯
He didn't deserve to be on the list for the 50, worst rappers, maybe I'm saying that from a fan standpoint but I thought he was a unique voice in the industry and I would have loved to see what became of him, loved and forever missed
This is awsome Magoo single handedly put together two of the best music producers ever. RIP Magoo.
Effed with magoo heavy!! One of the most unique voices and a solid lyricist imo. I wish i would've heard more from him. He was relevant at a time you couldn't hear what you wanted when you wanted. Ahead of his time. Rwg
OMG! I LOVE Magoo. Why were people hating on him? I loved their music (Timbaland, Magoo, Missy, Genuwine, Aaliyah). I had always thought he was so humble. So sad when he passed.
Those were the dayys🎉 paaarrrtay❤
Man who didn’t love Magoo? He was my favorite out of him and Timbaland 😢
This was real sad. I always love Magoo flow he deserves his flowers. RIP King
So glad you covered this 🥺Literally so upset that his passing got barely any acknowledgement from the hip hop blogs 😭 the way I didn’t hear about him passing until a couple months ago. RIP MAGOO 🕊️
I didn't now he passed. I loved his voice, it was different in a good way
This era is a little bit before my time but he definitely had a unique voice
Subscribed because of these documentaries. The static major one blew my mind. Keep up the great work!
This was a well produced documentary. Thank you for taking the time to do your research.
The heck! He freaking passed 3 months ago! Lord have mercy. Ma? I adored Timberland and Magoo and Missy heck all of them in up jump the boogie. Had on Repeat and I loved T&M full length cd. God I think I was 12 that had to be like 1997, I’m play the album over and over. only 50 years old barely. Damn heart breaking. So many amazing song writers and performers no longer with us. I feel so bad.
This is heartbreaking to know the disrespect the industry had for this brother...always had love for this brother and his diligence!!!
Great work as always..Timb and Magoo's collaborations were always freshly unique..Up Jumps the Boogie got played like crazy on the radio . Can you do Jesse Powell??

I loved his uniqueness. Artists should stand out and apart and I love the music they made. Gone too soon!
That list was so disrespectful to the late Magoo! The brotha was talented and had the most unique sound. These current artists wish they had 10% of the talent this brotha had! I enjoyed his collaborations through the years when I was in junior high/high school. Much respect to him and may his soul rest easy now!
I didn't know he passed. In 97 I played the heck out of Love To Love Ya...Magoo was dope in my opinion. I never thought about how he and tip had similar voices til I saw this. I never thought about them in the same space. As for Talib Kwali. He should have kept his mouth shut.
Woah! I didn’t know he passed… I love his music. Rest in peace
Magoo was not wack. I never though he sounded like Q-Tip. His flow and elivery are way different. Sorry to hear he passed away but lgad to know he had peace in his business endeavors away from music.
He said it right, most of the people saying he was wack will never touch 25% of the success he has.
RIP Melvin, this world doesn't deserve a soul like yours.
'Here We Come' is a core memory for me
ive been asking missy in comments online for years about Magoo and she paid me dust every time.. .I just find it odd. magoo should of gotten his flowers. I enjoyed him asa rapper. very fun and witty. i never thought of qtip when listening to Magoo so that part was wild to me. rest in heaven Magoo
I’ll never forget Magoo! I remember buying his first CD with Timbaland. Then bought Tim’s Bio cd. His style was one of a kind. Definitely a genuine person from what I know. My condolences to his family and will always be a fan for life!!
was one of my first cd also
You know you doing something right when you got haters. And in this video It's very Evident. R.I.P Magoo, I still to this day at age 36 bump "Beep Me 911" and many many more of him and Tim's Hits.
Well said rip king ❤
Magoo was so underappreciated in the industry. He was such a talented artist. To this day Indecent Proposal 2002 was one of my most fav albums Timbaland and Magoo did together. RIP❤
I had a class with Larry & Melvin at Deep Creek High. They use to beat on the desk & beat boxing all the time. Real cool dudes! RIP Melvin aka Magoo!
I'm fans of both Q-Tip and Magoo and I never thought their voices sounded the same.
I never thought their voices sounded the same either.
Well they both did and both of their friends did aswell
I would say Magoo had far more of a southern twang to his voice.
I hope he knew before his death that he had those of us who appreciated his music. My favorite Magoo track is 'Up jump the boogie.' It was his bars that I looked forward to. He was smooth with it and didn't have to come with political hooray. It was go with it energy. It made you feel good. So, his mission was accomplished. The mere fact that he had the same range as Q but found a way to stand out on his own is clever and shows he had skill & talent. Boo to all of those that faulted him for that. smh!
I had always wondered what happened to him and was very saddened hearing about his death on SM. Another one, gone too soon. But thank goodness he didn't die broke and unloved.
Thanks for dropping this tribute. He deserved it and all the loving words from his listeners.
RIP Melvin 'Magoo' Barcliff. (*Aaliah and Static Major*) You all are so missed.
😔this is how I find out Magoo passed
he passed a couple of moths ago.
Same💔
Just now r.i.p
😢
Thank you for this video. I was not aware of his Death. This hurts. May he sleep in peace.
I saw him one night walking down the strip in Va Beach. Also went to the same high school later. VA stand up.. Missy is from church land,VA..
The level of respect shown in your delivery and providing this information is amazing. You're doing an amazing job and so tactful and so compassionate and kind. Thank you!
Timberland, Missy, Magoo, Ginuwine & Aliyah were my teen years. Such good music and memories ❤
fr fr the😂 best years ever💯
Magoo was THAT GUY!!! I’m sickened to hear how he was disrespected!
GOD BLESS your family in this time of bereavement! 🙏🏾💜
You were your OWN star! 💫
Damn I appreciate this video. Growing up as a kid of the 90’s there whole camp (timbaland magoo missy aaliyah playa and ginuwine)was my favorite! The industry can be a dark place for artist. I always wondered what happened to him. This brought some clarity. May his soul rest peacefully 🕊️
I was always a huge fan of Magoo. He was truly unique and talented ❤ it's sad he wasn't appreciated 😞 we're birthday twins and my voice is to most people different cuz its high pitched. He was definitely awesome and always be remembered ❤❤❤ 🙏🏿🕊️
Another master piece by Justified by Jeury. I love how you try and research the cause of death we like the closure if gives
Never heard anybody call magoo garbage in 97. Everybody was bumping welcome to our world. That’s just some GEN Z hater sh!t, they complain about everything 😂
Nah Talib Kweli and Charlemagne were among the biggest haters of Magoo and them cats ain’t young 😂😂😂 everything can’t be a gen z thang
Don’t front n act like Magoo wasn’t always looked at as corny
Damn, Magoo didn't deserve the disrespect. He was a competent, fun rapper who always understood the assignment and brought the right vibe to any given song. He wasn't wack, his style was just simplistic. He was a dope "role player" rapper, to borrow a sports term. RIP Magoo. You made your mark on Hip Hop man.
❤❤❤
Facts super duper facts
Damn Sinbad, that was unnecessary. Tim was wrong too. I loved Magoo's verses. He was unique. I didn't sound like him to me. It's a shame
I just found out with this video he passed 😢
I had a friend name DeAndre who looked so much like Magoo that's what we called him. He committed suicide smh. R.I.P to both
well damn
😔🙏🏾❤️🕊️
Awwww....😢😢😢
I didn’t even know that G passed smh..humble heart God blessed you and the family
