The Superfreak is dead......

[healer677]

After years of hard living, it looked like Rick James was making a bit of a turn around.

He had a regular bit on Dave Chapelles' show, he was working on his autobiography and even started making regular apperances again (the most recent at the BET awards). But; sadly today he was found dead.

Shame....another 80s icon gone.

I used to luv that track, Give it to me, from the very same LP as Super Freak. Album cover : He was dressed in dark leather and with those thigh high RED leather fark me boots, standing in the street like a HO LOL with his guitar. He was a bad mother funker...

RIP Rick.

He was just recently on that celebrity show where a bunch of B celebrities or has been celebrities live together in a house. He was invited there by Ron Jeremy to see IceT .

He looked very over weight so the natural causes might be explained there.

I saw that episode.... he was barely even recognizable, IMO. Far cry from the 1980's.

Oh, btw... He was there to see Vanilla Ice, not Ice T.
