The Heartbreaking Story of Craig Mack

[@ashcee3364]

I did an internship at a studio on Long Island when I was in college back in 1998 and met Craig Mack. He actually spoke to me as a person rather than speaking down to me as some dumb intern like most celebrities do.

[@Bailemos888]

He seemed like a good guy unlike those around him

[@dbroadna]

He lived across the street from my Aunt on 148th Southside. I spoke to him quite a bit. He lived in the house with the fire hydrant in front and would get so many tickets. The blue truck, anybody from Foch know what i am talking about.

[@wario4166]

Great story bro, I felt like I was there!!!

[@marissachapman1022]

Yes he seemed like a nice guy. He was spiritual. I’m sure that he is with the Lord.

[@michellewheeler3103]

I'm confused if his wish was for his family to tell people his cause of death was congestive heart failure, why are they now telling the public that it was HIV/AIDS? That's truly disgusting that even in death he is still being betrayed 😢💔

[@monilove1174]

Nah! He got rich by serving the DEVIL that’s how! All this worldy music is deceitful! Read the Bible it says it plain as day.

Craig died because he had aids/ hiv. He stopped taking his medication. Ralph Stair a so called preacher told him to stop taking his medication because God was going to heal him.

​@@SonzOfEnochwhy dont you learn who jesus is. All the names and appearances were changed in the Bible. There was no letter J until 1524. Look up cesare borgia...thats jesus christ. The Creator, who's name is YAHUAH, named His Son, YAHushua Ha'Machiach. YAHushua is from the tribe of YAHudah...which was changed to judah. Jesus aint no Abrahym or Hebrew name. YAHUAH and YAHushua's names are crucial. You will be asked by YAH what He and His Son's names are

[@cbreez40]

So are we to assume Diddy used Mack and Bigg against one another and these dudes fell into it unaware the Puppet Master was behind scenes mixing foolishness that would only help him steal from the artist??

[@kevinjohnson1958]

I wouldn't say they were publicly against each other, they toured together even here in the UK. Craig mack was heavily against being fake, Puff wanted more Bravado and bluff from Mack to sell the next record, as opposed to Biggie. He got better and more promotion, fringe listeners to hip hop think flava in your ear remix is the only version. I played Biggie Ready to Die last year for the 1st time in over 20 years last year as a grown 47yr old man, I will never play it again, it serves no purpose. Project funk the world is in my personal top 10 Hip hop Albums. (If MC's can't get with the style that's going on then they need to sit down.)

The cult he joined is like 10min down the road from my house. I saw Mack a few times and talked to him in the barbershop 1day. He didn’t want to talk about music a lot but he was still cool as a fan. Very humble brotha who just wanted peace of mind and respect. He just wanted to be happy at that point in his life. And he appeared to be happy there but I kinda think he also knew Pastor Stair was a wicked man as well. I’m hoping he’s in paradise now or reincarnated as a lion or a kid with a super bright future.
