Fatman Scoop, the celebrated rapper and DJ, tragically died after an incident during a Connecticut performance last month. The state’s medical examiner confirmed that the cause of death was hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, a natural condition.
The event unfolded in Hamden, CT, where fans witnessed Scoop energetically jumping up to the DJ booth before he suddenly collapsed and fell. Despite immediate medical attention and efforts to revive him at the scene, and subsequent emergency services rushing him to the hospital, he could not be saved.
At the age of 56, Fatman Scoop, born Isaac Freeman III, had made significant contributions to the music industry through collaborations with stars like Missy Elliott, Mariah Carey, and Jermaine Dupri. His impact and presence in the music world will be sorely missed.
